Absolutely fantastic campsite. The sites are well maintained and accommodating. Each has a firepit with grill, a picnic bench, and post for hanging a lantern. The sites are spacious enough to comfortably fit a tent and car. The electric sites have reliable power. The bathrooms had two showers with plenty of hot water.

Great little state park campground with cabins, electric and non-electric campsites. Non-electric sites are for tents only. Lots of room for kids to bike, relatively clean restrooms with showers, and small in size, two loops with maybe 30 sites on each.

We pitched a tent in the electric area and even though it was completely full it was relatively quiet by 8pm in October. It was a mix of tents, pop-ups, 5th wheels, and RVs in the electric side. Book early add it fills up fast, you won't regret it and make wonderful family memories you and your children will cherish for years to come.

Staff was very friendly and helpful upon checking in. The fill/dump station is conveniently located right to the left when you come in (no full hookups here). The bath house was clean and easily accessible as it is in the middle of the loop. There is a disc golf course, a picnic pavilion, two kids play areas (the picture below is the one at the lake), and great hiking trails. Some caveats: 1. Almost no cell service. This was a non factor for me, this is why I camp, to get away from those things. Something to consider if you work on the road or need to answer emails. 2. The bugs were in full force, please bring bug spray and light those citronella candles! I got bit on both feet pretty good, spending my next two days in severe itch mode! 3. If you have to travel for some items the Denton Walmart is about 15 minutes away. There is also a Dollar General in Ridgely. 4. Bring your bikes! Lots of space to ride around, especially for the kids.

This was a beautiful wooded campground with good sized spaces, clean and well lit facilities, and easy to navigate. We were very happy with our experience camping at Tuckahoe state park campground. Each site had a dedicated fire ring with a grill attachment, a picnic table, and a post with a hook for trash. Plus it’s dog friendly, and very clean! The firewood shed is easy to access and well stock... This was a beautiful wooded campground with good sized spaces, clean and well lit facilities, and easy to navigate.

Plus it’s dog friendly, and very clean! The firewood shed is easy to access and well stocked, and park management drove by many times to check on everyone which was reassuring. Our only complaint was that we booked during a heatwave (unknowingly), so it was a bit hot! However there were plenty of trees and shade to block out most of the direct heat
