Site #30. Not level. Had to wade through poison ivy to hook up the water. Which leaks. Needed extension cord to access electric, which is also on a slippery sloped hill. Picnic table is ridiculously placed at maybe 45°...4 pc of wood is $5. Seriously???? When I arrived I had cash. The child at the office said he'd have to take everything out of his drawer to give me change. It was $7 & change. I said you have a business, go to the bank....Then when I left, I asked for a receipt. Again, child tells me I can't have one, there's no ink in the printer. I said go to the store and get some, & at this point, I just had to laugh at their business model. Then I was blinded by the yard light every night. I guess some sites are more level, but don't stay in #30. Between the slippery gravel to access hookups, it wasn't worth it.

Beautiful camping site, a lil cramped but still enough space in between so perfect for families who want to be close but not right on top of each other!! Swimming pool is super clean, I believe $4 per person for entry, fishing lake, docks. This place has it all and it's in a beautiful hidden area away from town so you can have true peace!

After a four night five day camping trip to Rural Retreat Lake Campground with my family we had a very nice time in site 46! This is not a bougie campground! It's very much a camp ground that has been around a few yrs! It still has a lot of life in it and the quiet atmosphere and spacious sites are very sweet! That being said you will most likely need to bring a fair amount of leveling blocks for sure on some sites in order to achieve a level camper! You will also experience a pretty laided back atmosphere in the campground as well! Most sites have a ton of shade which is super nice on these summer days! The play ground is pretty nice and my son had a great time playing on it! It would be awesome to see a bit more gravel added to some sites to cut down on the mud. We plan to be back early August for another trip and look forward to making more memories at RRLC!

Great little gem in Rural Retreat. Nothing super fancy and it doesn't need to be. Camping offers both primitive ($20 a night) and water/electric hook ups ($30 a night). Several picnic shelters scattered throughout. Good size public pool ($4 a person) and they now have a nice 9 hole disc golf course with some wide open throws that's great for beginning to intermediate players!

This place has went down hill a lot. It's not being kept up very well. Bathrooms are disgusting and campsites stay muddy and nasty.

Fantastic looking area. But be prepared to be questioned by the game warden every time you pull in and they are there. Including if you're just kayaking.

Excellent place to fish and camp. Staff was amazing. Beautiful grounds very well maintained. Lots of benches, trash can's, vending machines,, and toilets and porta potties that were well maintained also around remote areas.

Needs some updates, especially restrooms and access to restrooms. Be better fishing time if you could use restroom when needed.

The scenery was beautiful!!! We saw plenty of birds, the Little Blue Heron, the green Heron, lots of Canadian Goose, plenty of wood ducks and a pair of white birds. I think they are Egrets. We fished from sunrise for about 3 hours but, didn't catch any fish. The water was smooth as glass.
