Moutardier Campground provided a great, beautiful, peaceful place to get away. The lake is wonderful. I enjoyed a great swim right down the hill from my campsite.The lake seemed clean, no suspicious odors! The grounds are clean, as well as the bath houses. It is definitely a boaters' lake. Jet-skis, kayaks, motor boats and pontoon boats provided easy entertainment from my campsite chair! The camp... Moutardier Campground provided a great, beautiful, peaceful place to get away.

All were friendly and had well behaved pets! If you like to be right on the lake, there are some sites nearly in the lake! No complaints about noise, it was made while having fun. I will visit this area again.

We dry camped on a water site. We had 1 bar with Verizon and 3 with our King booster. There were beautiful redheaded woodpeckers and hummingbirds. I saw 1 bald eagle early in the morning. The bathhouse was clean and the showers were roomy. Only con is the roadwork being done on the narrow road 259? Leading into the campground.

Quiet and serene, plenty of sites with lake views. Sites are arranged so you're not on top of each other. Prices are super cheap. Lots of trees. Beautiful bath houses. Plenty of good bank fishing spots. Roads getting to the campground and in the campground are narrow but do-able with a 40' class A towing. Boat ramp is easily accessible . Drawback : no sewer hookups, lake front sites are primitive... Quiet and serene, plenty of sites with lake views. Sites are arranged so you're not on top of each other. Prices are super cheap.

Quiet generators are allowed 6am- 10pm Few sites are level. We will be back !

This was a friendly and so enjoyable experience. The park was clean and had plenty of photo ops. Kids were riding scooters and electric bikes up and down hills. Boating looked so fun and being dragged by tube's.
