We stayed at the East Fork State Park Campgrounds while visiting the area. The campground offered modern amenities including restroom facilities with flush toilets, showers, and a camp store. We enjoyed riding bikes and the Miniature golf course next to the nature center.

Really great time and a really great park. Plenty of things to do with trails, sand volleyball, pickleball, putt putt, plus the lake. I would recommend for the family or group of friends.

We had a group come to camp here. Overall we had a blast and the campground was great, clean, and the company (other campers) were extremely laid back. The bathrooms and showers were clean also. ****The only issues we had were that We had two campsites B23 & B24 and neither one of them had a grill in the fire pits (and both of ours for whatever reason were the only two without them, I checked).

The bathrooms and showers were clean also. ****The only issues we had were that We had two campsites B23 & B24 and neither one of them had a grill in the fire pits (and both of ours for whatever reason were the only two without them, I checked). Also one of our campsites B23 we couldn't even use bc there was room for only one tent (online it says you can fit up to 6 people realistically you could fit a 2-3 person tent in that spot) and it had been raining so that only spot was a mud puddle the rest of the area was at a slope and/or concrete so nobody could pitch a tent there. I would still definitely go back.

I have stayed twice at this park and both times have been great for me. I've not had any issues with hookups or anything. I have a 31 foot. RV pull behind. It's a little snug in some spots. When you're getting to your area, but it's very doable. The area around there has always been very well. Maintained and clean.
