We like it here. It’s nice and quiet. The sites are large. Not much to do though.

Made reservations several months ago. Owner does not take CC info to reserve spot. Arrived and were told walk ins had taken all the spots and park was full. All other parks were full, due to a softball tournament in the area. Ended up sharing a lot with a homeless tenter, which was awkward. Lots of seasonals, several homeless sites, unkempt, unorganized owner. DO NOT STAY HERE!!!!

This place is a dang JOKE! We made reservations months in advance. When we arrived a man on a golf cart approached our vehicle and asked if we had reservations and we told him Yes we made them a month ago. He said well people pulling in off the streets have already filled all the camping spots so we nothing else available. Don't recommend. We actually found a very nice place about 12 minutes away called Paul Bunyan Family Campground. They were very welcoming and able to fit us in with full hookup. They are also aware that the man at this campground does this quite a bit! ...We do not recommend going to THUNDERBAY!

This campground is awesome. It’s extremely clean and quiet. The bathrooms and showers are nice and clean. The guy that runs the place is super friendly. They have amazing rates and seasonal pricing. I’ll be coming back here many times a year for many seasons to come.

We like quiet, shady trees, level sites that are not crammed together and plenty of room to walk our dogs. This fits the bill, although in peak season with all sites full and families with kids it might be louder. Still, sites are large enough for some to park their trailer, large boat and tow vehicle with room to spare. 50 Amp service, good water, interesting trails to roam and just far enough off the highway that traffic noise isn't a bother. Some playground equipment for kids and room for them to ride bikes or have a ballgame. Basketball court, too. Cannot describe the bathhouse as I do not care for public bathing or public restrooms when I have my own.
