As a Dive professional, I haven’t seen a more well laid out and organized Dive Lake or Quarry! Very kind staff and nice that they answer the phone to field questions before you make the drive. Nice water visibility and lots of attractions on the map including the school bus, shipwrecks, and submarine! Highly recommend!

What a fun time! Cabana was worth it! Ild only say being a busy weekend, they need to check bathroom stalls often... I went into two stalls with no toilet paper. I told a staff person by the ramp area.. not sure if they considered checking. other than that. No complaints.

Beautiful clean beach and lake. Fun inflatables, water volleyball court, reserved covered picnic areas on the beach, and more. Not cheap but tons of fun on a summer day. Food trucks on site most days.

Our experience at Pearl Lake RV Park was far from what we expected, especially given the high price tag. When we arrived, our campsite had garbage on it, and instead of a scenic view, we were facing the maintenance building. The so-called “resort fee” is outrageous considering the lack of activities offered. While the lake water was fairly clear, the beach sand was dirty and low quality—not what...

When we arrived, our campsite had garbage on it, and instead of a scenic view, we were facing the maintenance building. The so-called “resort fee” is outrageous considering the lack of activities offered. While the lake water was fairly clear, the beach sand was dirty and low quality—not what you’d expect at a place calling itself a resort. The nicest part of the campground was the new basketball and pickleball courts, but that alone doesn’t justify the cost. There’s absolutely no security, and all staff were gone by 5 p.m. The lack of oversight was clear—our neighbor decided to fix his car right next to our fire pit after quiet hours, which was noisy and inconsiderate. Overall, this campground is overpriced and poorly maintained. We won’t be back. It felt more like a dump than a getaway.

For a day trip, it’s great. Water is clean, even when it’s packed there is still plenty of space to stake your claim. Food trucks are convenient. Didn’t try the bar or restaurant. This is the best kept secret ever. We didn’t discover it until the end of the summer and managed to go twice. It will be our go-to next summer. Must say there is a HUGE difference in crowds on a weekday vs a weekend. I... For a day trip, it’s great. Water is clean, even when it’s packed there is still plenty of space to stake your claim.

Inflatable climber for the kids.
