Year 2026. There is an algea warning. No swimming and no kids or pets in the water. There are signs posted everywhere. Carp can be found dead all along the lakes beaches. If you are there not for the water it is still a good getaway to go camping or bring your rv. Lots of campsites with good parking and some with nice privacy. All campsites are by reservations only. Also lots of paths to. Go walking down and the bigger bathrooms have running water and showers. Wifi provided in certain areas.

Friendly staff at marina and on line. Cost was ok because of amenities (showers, electricity, water and marina store). Very hot and extremely windy. Water quality was gross at the swim beach. No luck fishing from shore, inlet, and outlet. Probably better with boat. Stars were ok for elevation. We stayed in Sandpiper loop. Big mistake-very exposed to tornado force winds in the evenings. Lake side and pelican loops are recommended for proximity to lake and cover from the crazy wind. Overall, do not waste your camping time.

The park itself is absolutely beautiful even with the algae, but the camping experience was not great. The park employees were great, but the amount of mosquitoes and bugs in general was awful. Mosquitoes were literally on every surface of the camp and car. The wind was also incredibly powerful overnight. We got about 3 hours of sleep between the wind and the bugs and ended up leaving after the first night. We will be cleaning bugs off of my camp equipment and car for months. Just go for a day trip and don't camp.

Me and my family enjoy coming here at night ro star gaze and my son brings his telescope and has captured comets. If you don't want to camp, theres a huge parking lot available if you just want to come hang out. It's a nice park. Worth the visit for sure.

This place is awesome! The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is #1 Flies, Flies, Flies… I’d read a review warning about the bugs but didn’t think it would be this bad. OMG. Go prepared. A screened canopy is a must, keep your fire going, and essential oil spray keeps them at bay. #2 The reservoir had been drained early so the beach and the bottom of the lake were connected so MUD everywhere. It’s best to go before Labor Day to enjoy the full “beach vibe”. The campsites are pretty close but our neighbors on all sides were super nice. We stayed at Sandpiper which is very close to the water. Lakeside, Cove, Pelican, and Sandpiper appear to be the more popular sites. There were rangers frequently making rounds (which I personally loved). Restrooms and showers were pretty par for the course and the sites had electricity and water. There’s also a marina with lots of necessities unless you forget anything.

This is now one of our fav places for camping...it has larger spots close to the water. You can swim and paddleboard...they allow floaties. We loved the different drop in areas. People nice and chill. Not too crowded. Free showers. Big bathrooms. Nice camp hosts, helpful. Bugs get worse at night but more like little flying bugs than mosquitos, so you can still hang out

The staff is great and very friendly. Sites are large and clean. Birds of all kinds abound. Beautiful setting. Bring bug spray, midget and gnats are baaad.

This is a nice campground! Campers can set up right next to the water.

This was out first time camping, and Jackson lake state park did not disappoint. Our spot was amazing. The shower and restroom facilities weren't 5 stars but the showers did the job and there was always toilet tissue. Great first time camping experience.

Good place to hangout for the day. The bugs were incredibly hungry that day. I got bit so much on my legs and ankles even with bug spray. But it was a good day otherwise and nice beach. People seem to pick up their trach and keep it clean.

Bugs or wind. Choose 1. Seriously though this has the potential to be a great campground if you can stand either of those nuisances. We went midweek and it was ~15% occupied. We had a waterfront site but there's 8ft of boulders so not so easy to launch our paddleboard. Site 87 is not level left to right but appeared most others were Also, wish the grass around our site was mowed. Strong Verizon signal was a plus.

Location of our campsite was little far from the crowd. Which we like, but our parking spot was flooded, so we were not able to park in our site spot. Short distance walk to our campsite. Loved the view, but they definitely can trims some hedges and trees to get better view of the lake. Overall the experience camping at Jackson lake was great! Room for our tent, right by the lakeside. Restrooms were decent. Will definitely come back to camp longer and explore the areas.

This is a beautiful lake, I enjoy every time I come here. Be prepared for the mosquitos though. I have never seen so many at once. I like that they have electric and water for RVs. Better to camp there during the week. We left on Thursday, and it was already packed, and more coming. ;)
