Great campground if you want to be secluded from everyone else. Easy access to the lake with great views. All non electric sites is a drawback because you have to hear generators all the time, but I'm sure that's one of the reasons it doesn't get overcrowded like all the other campgrounds anymore. Just don't let your dog off the leash. Grumpy camp host.

So many sites! Peaceful on the water. A lot of trash around our site, that was the only bummer. Toilet was clean.

This is our first time camping at Craven's Bay. We really love it. They have flush toilets and water spigot. No electric hookups so bring your generator. It is about 6 miles off the main LBL road, so be sure to head to the store before arrival. They do sale ice here. $2 for a 10lb bag and $4 for 20lbs. Great place to bring kids to have a day or weekend playing in the water. Highly recommend

We hung up our hammocks at midnight, in the absolute darkness and woke up to an amazing view right on the water. Enjoyed a quick breakfast and took a paddle on the lake. We saw abundant wildlife—an osprey grab a fish out of the water, a bald eagle, a giant turtle, a white heron, and lots of jumping fish. What a great spot!!!
