The park was pretty nice...all sites are paved. Toilet areas are half way clean. But the loud mouth people, barking dogs and generators ruined a great weekend !!!!

Nice campground! I really enjoyed the camping experience. Even though it may not say in the title here on the google reviews, this place is a state forrest campround. Therefore, it is rustic: Very spacious sites, no electric, or no showers. The vault toilets are very modernized and clean, unlike some of the other rustic campgrounds I've stayed at. The lake is spring fed and only electric boats are allowed. Therefore, the water is very clean. The beach could use a little grooming though as there are a lot of weeds growing in the sand. Much of the surrounding areas on the lake is private property. It's not entirely a secluded area. Overall, this was a nice rustic camping area on a very clean lake.

My daughter and I stayed there a few nights. You self pay and I didn't see 1 cop or ranger. Wasn't rowdy but everyone did their thing. Nice if you don't like pigs and authority on your case because there isn't any. Swim spot plus semi secluded camp sites

Just spent a great week camping at Island Lake. I have loved this campground for almost 7 decades. Very clean spacious camp sites. Happy to see the return of having a campground host. Barb & Dan were helpful and friendly. My only concern is the condition of the beach. It needs some TLC!
