Very nice park. We had a site on the water. It’s so nice to fall asleep hearing the water lapping and wake up to a sunrise over the lake. The sites are pretty well packed in, but neighboring campers were very friendly, so there were no issues. We were there for Labor Day weekend- the park was full but quiet. The bathrooms were very clean. Management was very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend this campground.

What gem of a park and campground. Nice sites... ours was grassy, wooded, right across from a natural spring and near the lake. There a good number of bathrooms and showers that were always very clean. The camp host, Ron, was always present and looking after things.. he was friendly and helpful.

Great campsites on northern end of Intermediate Lake and just south of the bridge crossing Central Lake. Has a boat launch & docks for guests boats. The water fill station & bathrooms are very well maintained and clean. The city park is connected and has playground equipment and a swimming area. Walking distance into the quaint village of Central Lake which has a community event every Tuesday during summer. We loved this central location while we kayak the upper chain of lakes. The managers are very friendly and knowledgeable about the area.

Loved this campground!! We had a camp spot near the water and a babbling brook. It was so beautiful and peaceful. The camp sites are well cared for. Very clean bathrooms with everything I could ask for. Big shower with a hose attachment, a folding seat in the shower, lots of handles to hold onto (very very handy as a disabled person!!) Also a fan always on the floor to keep it dry. There's also a boat ramp and a playground. Every person I met there, staff and campers, were so nice and helpful. I'm definitely coming back. :D
