We love camping at Hickory campground. This year we had spots 149 and 151 near the path to the beach. There were thousands of long-jawed orb weaver spiders. They would make their webs all over everything. So keep that in mind if you decide to camp in that area. We saw some beautiful deer too!

In general the staff and rangers are doing pretty good with this area of Clinton Lake, as best they can right now, but as of summer 2019 it is still very flooded. Half the campsites are under 6-12 ft of stagnant water. Tons of bugs. You must wear a LOT of big repellant or you are literally risking your life with all the mosquitos and ticks here. The grass is too tall and overgrown due to rain, so... In general the staff and rangers are doing pretty good with this area of Clinton Lake, as best they can right now, but as of summer 2019 it is still very flooded. Half the campsites are under 6-12 ft of stagnant water. Tons of bugs. You must wear a LOT of big repellant or you are literally risking your life with all the mosquitos and ticks here. The grass is too tall and overgrown due to rain, so it is a haven for ticks. The playground is well kept, however, as is the nearby sculptures park and boat ramp. I would NOT boat. Again, stagnant flood water, so E.coli along with other hazardous bacteria will be concentrated in much of, if not all of, the lake. The bathrooms are not working, but they have brought in port-a-potties. You MUST bring your own hand sanitizer or soap. There is nothing lake-related to do that is safe. Just camping outdoors with a playground nearby.

The campground is wonderful even though there has been flooding. There's no beach acces right now. You have to go over to the neighboring campground for showers and they do have a laundry room. We only saw a few sailboats on the water but it was beautiful blue. Bring bags to hang up your food. Rocky racoon showed up and insisted on trying to knock over our cooler.

You have to go over to the neighboring campground for showers and they do have a laundry room. We only saw a few sailboats on the water but it was beautiful blue. Bring bags to hang up your food. Rocky racoon showed up and insisted on trying to knock over our cooler. He made off with a banana, an energy bar, and some Mexican cookies! My husband moved the cooler to the inside of the tent and I had "Guardians of the Galaxy" flashbacks! He had that same grin.

This was a great place to pull in for the evening. All of the surrounding RV parks wanted 45 to 55 dollars to park a van with no hooks up. This campground was peaceful, really pretty view full moon views of the lake, deer playing around in the morning and it felt safe for a solo female.
