Zero Defects II

Nice… not a ton of things to do. Beach is ok… campground is ok… but for the price, location and to relax… it’s actually quite good.

Called the Expo Center to reserve a site in Markin Glen (April 2025) (which is a blessing to our family, we love it there)and the lady told us that we had a red flag and would have to wait for her to talk to the man over the campgrounds... still waiting for a call back...why..? a red flag because we didn't have a good experience at Cold Brook and expressed our situation. That seems kind of childish and wrong. (Fall of 2024)Horrible communication... horrible customer service... never, again... Markin Glen is not like this! They did refund our money... definitely in need of better help and training, praying next summer will be better!

Not well taken care of anymore, it's definitely the geese's lake not the people that pay $30 a year to swim in it, beach is always covered in poop and the lake has a stank to it, half of the swim area is usable the other half is black muck with no warning when that starts

Campground was very clean where we were camping. Restrooms were a disaster - fault of other campers not staff. Great location and very quiet.

I have mixed feelings about my review. I do love this lake. We have fished and kayaked many times here and love the peacefulness being out on the water. It's not too busy and seems to be always clean around the parking lots. Last Saturday our truck and one other vehicle was vandalized/broken into. Not just a quick smash and grab but they took time to find large boulders(plural) to destroy our truck. Happened between 4pm-6pm on a Saturday, daylight hours. I just can't understand how something like this happened without being noticed and park rangers patrolling and at the gate. This is a county park and you are supposed to pay for a park pass. Why would you pay to go and vandalize vehicles?! Was parked at the boat launch parking lot. Just be aware. Again I love the lake and will still be back when we get our truck fixed. I am attaching the good, bad and ugly. (Good being the beautiful scenery and bad is our poor truck that took a beating)

Nice spot to take the kids. Good shake area for the little ones

This looks like a nice campground, but their policy sucks! You MUST. reserve a site over the phone no later than 4:30 pm the day of arrival, or else you’re toast. No website. No walk in allowed. No matter how empty the campground is, they will NOT acomodate you if you just happen to show up without a prior reservation. Not only that, but the host will promptly show up and politely ask you to leave.

Staff very rude . Came to visit paid the daily rate only had a few campers there and the camp host told me I had to move and park down in visiting parking. That would have been ok if the campground had more campers . And really what does it matter when I was parked on a site of who I was visiting. I can see why the place was empty. Have better host! Camping should be fun for all . You have up tight people that make it unfun .

Attended a gathering at this park under a pavilion . This was the first time at this park.. it was very nice. From the pavilion there is a wonderful view of the lake. The restrooms were slightly larger than the standard ones at other parks ... It was very clean! I would definitely go back...

I've only gone here for the disc golf course so I can't rate the park as a whole. But the course itself is very fun! You have a couple open shots that require some skill to finish and a few shots in between the woods! Overall 5 stars for difficulty and cleanliness too!

Push the Button

Love love loved! We spent the entire day here and would do it again if we found ourselves in the area. Lakes, hills, birds, trees, plenty of parking, and it was quiet as nature should be. More then a park, we’d say a sanctuary. We are so glad that we stopped here for the day😄👍🏻 The lake is absolutely beautiful and the water was extremely inviting. Coming from Florida and never seeing swans before, we were absolutely enamored by their presence at the lakeside. They made it that much more magical. By the beach access is a restroom as well as a little sheltered area with a grill. It was very much welcomed when a rain shower came through. Although the restrooms weren't the best, they were there and we were thankful. Things to consider: There isn't much for seating so we suggest bringing some foldable chairs or an outdoor blanket.

This is one of our go-to camping parks. We love it here.

Great park! The campground is a quaint little piece of solitude. The beach area was a great place to swim and play with the kiddos. They have multiple public restrooms, really helps so you don't have to walk far if you're in different locations around the park
