This is the absolute BEST Campground we have ever been to, EVER, and we've been to quite a few over our 40+ years of camping across the country! It is extremely clean and well kept. The grounds are beautiful with many trees and immaculate grass with level sites. The bathhouse is very clean. Nice laundry onsite. It's gated so you always feel safe. It is very peaceful, and, the best part, it's QUIE... This is the absolute BEST Campground we have ever been to, EVER, and we've been to quite a few over our 40+ years of camping across the country! It is extremely clean and well kept. The grounds are beautiful with many trees and immaculate grass with level sites. The bathhouse is very clean. Nice laundry onsite. It's gated so you always feel safe. It is very peaceful, and, the best part, it's QUIET! Yes, they have many rules to keep the campground clean, safe, peaceful and quite, and we appreciate those rules!! We go camping to get away from the noise and hustle bustle of everyday life. If you want to have a party or a bunch of people at your site, this is not the place for you. If you want peace and quiet, I HIGHLY recommend Lakeshore! The Owners, Joyce and Craig are very nice people and very accommodating - Thank you for making our stay so relaxing and pleasant! We stayed there for a month and if we ever have the chance to visit the Oelwein area again, we will definitely stay at Lakeshore.

We usually go somewhere else and found this place by accident. It's off the beaten path but it was absolutely beautiful. Super clean with a great view of the lake, which they have a private beach with a roped off swimming area. We can't say enough about the two owners Joyce and Craig. They were super friendly and helpful. I had surgery days prior to showing up and Craig helped disconnect my tow do... We usually go somewhere else and found this place by accident.

We can't say enough about the two owners Joyce and Craig. They were super friendly and helpful. I had surgery days prior to showing up and Craig helped disconnect my tow dolly without hesitation. We extended and they accommodated us without a single question. The price was perfect and we plan on returning the next time we are traveling through the area.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this campground! From the moment we arrived, it was clear how impeccably well-kept the entire property is—clean, organized, and thoughtfully laid out. The owners were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home from check-in to check-out. What truly sets this place apart is how family-friendly it is. The campsites are large and there are... We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this campground! From the moment we arrived, it was clear how impeccably well-kept the entire property is—clean, organized, and thoughtfully laid out. The owners were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home from check-in to check-out. What truly sets this place apart is how family-friendly it is. The campsites are large and there are so many activities for the kids! Between the playground, Gaga Ball pit, Pickleball, mini golf, carpet ball, beautifully kept beach, and access to a paved trail, our kids were entertained from sunrise to sunset. It’s important to note that this is not your party place—quiet time starts at 10pm and is respectfully observed. But that’s exactly what makes it perfect for those looking for a low-key, peaceful weekend. Whether you're looking to unwind or keep the kids busy in a safe and fun environment, this campground strikes the perfect balance. Highly recommend to families or anyone seeking a clean, quiet, and enjoyable camping experience. We’ll definitely be back!

There are tons of rules for everything. Check-in took way too long, and we were out in a not shaded spot when there were plenty spots around us that were shaded. Also, you don't get to pick your spot they are assigned. Visitors have to be allowed in at the card entry gate and pay $5 to visit. If you have 1 camp site you can have 4 adult visitor and their kids, 2 camp sites with family you can on... There are tons of rules for everything.

On the plus side, it is a very well-kept campground with a nice shower house and lake with a sand beach.
