Nice campground on south end of the lake with beach, short hiking trails, restrooms, etc.
Craig Anderson
Nice campground, beautiful settings, restrooms were clean and the shower was acceptable. I would recommend this campground for anyone looking for a place to stay in the area!

Parking is close to the beach access and there is a small playground and a bunch of benches with some shade. The beach is clean and the there is a nice gradual increase in the water depth. There is a poll at the ends of the swimming area to indicate the depth if you have swimmers that need life jackets. They also provide free life jackets. We were sharing the beach with a handful of other families and we had plenty of space. You can bring sun shades and coolers. They do want you to pay for a $5 day pass if you do not hold an annual pass or have camping reservations.

I actually stayed at the Spillway loop but the showers are here at McNair, so explored the McNair campground as well. Beautiful sites with trees and separation from other campers. Trails, dump station, wonderful showers. Another terrific Corps of Engineers campground. $18 for electric sites $9 for electric sites with the America the beautiful pass.

Clean, safe, and beautiful campground with great amenities. The showers are by the main area and only available Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday 7am to 7pm. Campsites have electrical hookups including household as well as RV compatible outlets. There are hiking trails all around (we used the AllTrials app to find them). Bathrooms were surprisingly warm in December!

McNair campground is a very nice and clean campground. The bathroom is amazing compared to other campgrounds I’ve stayed at. They were very clean and smelled really good !also it is air conditioned and heated has a no touch soap dispenser and high water pressure in the showers. The only down side was most of the camp sites are right on top of each other but there are a few good ones with space. There was also water hookups near all the campsites. I am giving McNair a 5* review !

Lot 30 McNair Access Campground Pros: The hosts - Amazingly friendly and attentive. We could tell they care and try to keep the facility in order. The 2 friendly black cats (there are 3, 1 isn't friendly and stays away) while some people may not enjoy this, it was nice to have a little animal company. Bathroom/shower was very clean and well stocked We were close to the playground Now having said that... Cons: Check in is not until 5 pm and checkout is at 4pm, very odd and difficult to plan around.. There was a wedding when we were there so the campground was full and rather noisy. Distance to the beach is a good walk. The pack of raccoons that will literally jump on your picnic table with no fear would not leave. We were told by the campers next to us to keep all food in our cars. Unfortunately later we witnessed these same campers throwing food into the woods 🙄 Our lot was quite the walk to the shower/bathroom facility. Not set up for tents ideally a camper is better.
