We had a friend recommend this campground. She said it was awesome…and it was even better than expected. You can tell the owners put a lot of thought and effort into making it an enjoyable experience. We will be back!

By far the best campground we've been to! We've been camping here for three years now and won't camp anywhere else. The owners and their family are some of the best people I know! Aaron, Jessica, Kandi, Aaliyah, Evan, and Isaiah put an enormous amount of time, energy, and thoughtfullness into their campground. They have now owned this campground for four years, and I'm impressed at all the additions added for their guests' enjoyment. To name a few... a new pavilion where they host all sorts of events and activities, paddleboard rentals, Ruby the Duck, a dog park, the ice cream shop (amazing, by the way!), and I've heard a new court is coming!! You'll have to visit to find out what kind of court! ;) I've been to other campgrounds, but I've never been to one that is so focused on a family-friendly environment. The number of activities they have for the kiddos is remarkable! My daughter absolutely loves the beach party (music, beach balls, rubber ducks), the tile painting and shirt tye-dying. They have dance parties, bingo, music bingo, poker runs, all sorts of activities for the young and old ;). You must stay over the 4th of July - they put on the BEST firework show!! You won't be disappointed! The grounds are some of the cleanest I've seen. They continue to update restrooms and showers. The attention to cleanness is impressive, one of the first things I noticed when we first started coming here. Above all is the safety of the campground. Aaron and Jessica ensure the safety of all their guests is the number one priority. We've never felt safer letting our daughter roam a campground. Yes, going 5 mph is agonizing (lol), but really, why are you in a hurry? Slow down, and ensure the safety of all around you, and enjoy your time at Lake Schneppaho. You won't regret your stay. Thank you for providing us with lasting memories that we will forever cherish. It won't be long until you see us again! We already miss being there!!

Our space was absolutely perfect. Had a nice breeze off the "lake". Plenty of shade. A bit loud as it was Bike Week, but it was alright. Super relaxing and will definitely be back!

It's very clean, has these cool patio things if you're on the lake, and the showers work surprisingly well for a campground. Warm water that lasts a good amount of minutes with only one push of the button. Plus, the playground and swimming area is cool. They've also got a water trampoline, but I didn't get a picture. Edit: I read some of the other reviews here, and it seems like some of the sites are close enough to the highway to hear the vehicles on it. I personally had an amazing experience (I was not at one of those sites and I don't remember hearing the highway at all during my stay) but if anyone is looking to stay here and happens to be bothered by that kind of thing, my advice would be to double check and make sure you've booked one away from the highway :) Overall it was a very enjoyable vacation and we had loads of fun! I would definently come again.
