A very cool little camping spot! Kayaking out on the lake was wonderful and our site being right on the water was perfect. Restrooms and showers were pretty nice for a campground. The Echo Cliff trail was right across from our site and is a must-do, a spectacular view. There’s also many cool mosses and mushrooms along the trail.

Restrooms and showers were pretty nice for a campground. The Echo Cliff trail was right across from our site and is a must-do, a spectacular view. There’s also many cool mosses and mushrooms along the trail. The view of the stars at night was amazing, and all of the little toads were very cute. We came in July and expected it to be crowded but it was not and the crowd there was very chill. We drove 11 hours from Indiana to camp here and we recommend!

First time visiting the campground. We used a tent for our stay. I have visited other parks where you must stay in your area so your stuff can be there safely. The site was clean, a little bit of an incline, so make sure your camper or tent is level. The bathroom was very clean, I was very happily surprised by this, as you don't see that in public restrooms. They had a shower, too. The views wer... First time visiting the campground. We used a tent for our stay. I have visited other parks where you must stay in your area so your stuff can be there safely. The site was clean, a little bit of an incline, so make sure your camper or tent is level. The bathroom was very clean, I was very happily surprised by this, as you don't see that in public restrooms. They had a shower, too. The views were beautiful as most sites have access to the water. It was easy to check in and out. It was safe since we went on hikes, and when we came back, everything was still there. Dogs are allowed, but please, keep them on a leash and pick up their waste after they are done. Also, don't play with them if they are going to bark after 10 pm. Just be considering of the people around your site.

Absolutely wonderful. Such a little gem of a campground. My siblings and I get our families together every year for a group camping trip and this year we visited Little Sand Point park. If you’re looking for a basic park with great staff you should stay here. Try to get a lake side spot. Note, the showers are across the street so they’re not super convenient but they have signs and a cute little p... Absolutely wonderful. Such a little gem of a campground.

Note, the showers are across the street so they’re not super convenient but they have signs and a cute little path to them.
