2nd Camping trip in our New RV. Love this campground. Sites are spaced far apart. Campground is small, so not hundreds of sites. Shady sites with access to the Lake. Some sites have better access, but all are good. Camp Host offer lots of extras like ice, soda, snacks, firewood, even ice cream. Will for sure camp here again.
Great campground, easy access to the lake.. kids loved this place. This is one of my favorite campgrounds now! Highly recommend this place. Bathrooms are clean and well maintained. Hosts at this location are very nice and caring too.
A beloved hidden gem! This is by far our most favorite place to come and relax on the lake, and we come as often as we can. Trey and his wife Amber take such amazing care of the campground. What I love the most is that the campground is small, and the sites are spaced far apart and are nicely shaded. Most all the sites have good water access. The restrooms/shower house is always extremely clean and stocked. There is also a boat dock for fishing and a boat ramp. We can easily launch our 24' pontoon without issues. Looking forward to many more camping trips and memories made at Hester's Ferry!
