Nearby Attractions & Things to Do

Was quiet and by far the absolute cleanest main bathrooms and showers I've ever seen at a campsite! Dorothy and her staff are amazing and the kids enjoyed the park and play area. It's a shame the lake is so non existent but we would still go back cuz everyone we met was so helpful and friendly.

Dorothy and family/friends are all amazing people! Love love love them all. Amazing hosts for an amazing campground. It's safe and quiet for the little ones. Peaceful and serene. We've been going for many years now and if you do choose to go, please be good campers. Be respectful. Clean up after yourselves. Keep the bathrooms clean and report any messes. It's an amazing place and I'd love to see it stay that way.

We LOVE staying at Jo Lake ! The lady who runs the place is extremely friendly and helpful! We come back year after year because we enjoy it so much.

There is no water in the lake😢 it's a shame that no one has reported it yet. but I can't say anything bad about the campsite, there is a shower and hot water, a normal toilet and plenty of firewood for $10, if you like forest camping, this is the place for you!
