Nice fall day. Just starting to get some color. We had a nice hike. There were a few people fishing and one person had gone for swim.

Had a fun time camping. Sites are pretty private yet close to pretty much everything. My daughter enjoyed the playground and lake. We did book to be near a playground at our campsite as we had 2 small children but the "playground" was only a swing near the bathrooms. We noticed that most of the "playgrounds" near the camp sites are just swing sets the main playground is near the lake/swimming area so if thats what you are looking for try to be closer to the swim area then for camping. Otherwise we had a fun 4 days and no issues other then the playground and snack bar was closed on the weekend because of low staffing.

Bowman State Park is hands-down one of our favorite places to camp. Every time we go, it feels like the perfect mix of peace, adventure, and beauty all rolled into one. The campsites are well laid out, spacious, and give you just the right balance of privacy and community. Whether you’re pitching a tent or setting up something bigger, it never feels cramped. The park is kept really clean, and you can tell the staff takes pride in maintaining the grounds. What really makes Bowman shine is the scenery. From the trails that wind through beautiful forests, to the quiet lake that’s perfect for fishing, kayaking, or just relaxing by the water — it’s the kind of place where you instantly feel unplugged from the chaos of everyday life. Sunsets here are something else too… it’s like the whole park slows down and gives you a show. We’ve camped at a lot of different places, but Bowman State Park keeps us coming back. It’s family-friendly, nature-rich, and has that “hidden gem” feel without being impossible to get to. If you love camping, hiking, or just want a place to recharge in the outdoors, this is it. Can’t recommend it enough — we’ll be coming back again and again.

Swim at own risk. No boat rentals, so bring your own

One of my favorite campgrounds! The sites are spacious, very clean, and surrounded by beautiful nature. Restrooms can be a bit of a walk depending on your location, so plan accordingly. The cabins are fantastic—perfect for up to four people—but keep in mind they don’t have electricity. Firewood was plentiful throughout the campground. We didn’t encounter any ticks, which was a relief. There’s even a restaurant near the lake, and you can grab a coffee at reception for just $0.95.

Site 106 can be very wet and seems to be the only one that is low. All the other sites were great

This is a nice, wooded state park. Sites are small and shady but we had no trouble parking our 27' trailer. The place was very quiet and clean. There is a cute little lake with a swimming beach and playground.

Absolutely beautiful State Park. Staff are extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and kind. Great place for hiking, fishing, kayaking, and biking the campsite roads. If you are looking to get away from the normal, packed in like sardines, paved camping, come here!
