The park is nice and location is great for fishing, I've rented a camper here before and they're nice. I stop in now for the baitshop, the staff are great, very friendly and prices are very reasonable. They have a little bit of everything for your fishing trip.

The perfect getaway with the sweetest hosts! So friendly, accommodating, and welcoming! Water and electric hook up, a huge beautiful lake, and an easy access dump station. We were very happy with our few nights we spent here!

My husband and I travel all over the country for work and we were driving through town about 9pm and needing a place to stay. We came into Lakeside RV and the owner came out to greet us. He was incredibly friendly and happy to help! Very nice quiet little campground on a beautiful lake! Big sites too!
