Benton Lake Campground is the best I have seen it in years! We just went last weekend, frequent it quite a bit each year. The new host Mike is amazing! Exactly what a host should be. Attentive, helpful, hard working, friendly. He not only cleans the bathrooms (outhouses) 3x daily, he also deep cleans them once a week. He makes his rounds and introduces himself but doesn't bother you. His generator is extremely quiet. No power there for the host so they need a generator for that. Great fishing lake and we love taking our kayaks on it. Most of the sites are very spacious. Campers seem to be quiet and respectful. I don't understand why this campground is not full all the time!

Best campground around in my opinion! The camp host was super nice and friendly! Definitely will be back! The sites are grass and mowed!

Been camping there for about 50 years, started going there with my parents, and now at 65 we will be back again this summer

Beautiful camping sites. Campsites are spacious and spread out with fire pits, lantern posts and picnic tables. There is water available.The vault bathrooms were very clean and taken care of, just a little dark inside though. There are 2 loops for camping. There is a little trail to the lake, which is very pretty. It did cost 24.00 a night, not 22.00 as posted on the website but well worth it. There were only 4 other people camping, so it was very peaceful & quiet. I will be returning next year! I did have cell phone service and Internet there. Wonderful experience! The Hosts were awesome people!

First time camping at Benton lake and was very surprised on how nice it was. Almost every campsite is really nice with a fire pit and table and lantern posts. I believe there was four pit toilets that where very well maintained a little dark in some of them. At least one water source for every loop. The host Bill and his wife where very nice and helpful. It is 24 dollars a night although the website says 22 but really worth it. Did not see much of a beach though, maybe we missed it as it was raining. There where a couple of very sketchy trees that had ribbons around them leaning over our car that where obviously dead and waiting to be cut down. We have full coverage so I did not mind. Just be aware!

We visited during the off-season. The vault toilets were still accessible and stocked with toilet paper. It was quiet and while we could hear traffic from the nearby road, it was overall a quiet and peaceful experience. The lake is probably better for fishing and kayaking than swimming, but it is pretty secluded and private so you get that feeling that you are off the grid in wilderness but only you still have a cell phone signal and are not far from a grocery store.

Really nice campground although the boat launch is a drive away from it

Fell in love with this place. The campground is right on the lake I didn’t see any waterfront sites but the walk to the lake and docks are a short fun hike. The sites are spacious and the only downside are the generators. Large and rustic but you will have an out house and cell phone coverage. This was my first time here and will definitely be coming back to camp here. The lake is beautiful and the experience was great. .

Used to be our favorite spot to camp. Current manager is allowing multiple inconsiderate people to run generators all night long. It literally sounds like we are camping in the infield at MIS. Will not stay again under these conditions.
