Beautiful lake, very clear water and nice day use areas. Was looking for a campground and unfortunately it doesnt look to be set up for any travel trailers. Maybe a small popup camper, sites were nice and clean and fairly level for a tent. Boat ramp is extremely steep and no dock, but manageable. Will definitely be bringing our tent out there soon!

The scenery is great 5 ⭐ but the day use and access to the lake were steep and virtually non existent. So not best for someone wanting to have a picnic and/or quick dip to cool off. If you have a boat and like to water ski while being in a fantastic natural environment then I would recommend 100%. Seems great for kayak and SUP. It's right off the 20 highway so easy access. Campground is ok too.... The scenery is great 5 ⭐ but the day use and access to the lake were steep and virtually non existent.

Those words are my opinion and thank you for reading them!

I would have given Lake Spaulding a 5 star review, but for the behavior of the camp hostess. She drove thru the campground screaming at people at the top of her lungs. Quite unprofessional. I love the campground, the lake, the easy access, and the sound of the train at night. i don't even mind the traffic in the distance. I will continue to return here. Hopefully next year there will be new hosts.
