The campground doesn't have electric or water at the campsite. It does have a grill and a picnic table, and the sites have some privacy and the driveway is paved and flat enough for our van. The (free) showers are hot. And the hiking is nice, though the boater trash is disgusting.

Great campground, decent facilities, and Joe, the host, was very friendly and accommodating. Large, private lots and, if you can, get a waterfront site. My only complaint is the website dupped us, be careful when booking. Go see Joe!

Lower Loop site 13. The driveway was slightly sloped, but the tent pad was level. I've never been a huge fan of gravel tent pads, but with a little extra supplies, it works for us. Our 9x7 tent fit great. The lake was only a few seconds away. No one bothered us, which is the way we like it. Thursday night, it was super quiet. Friday night, the families arrived with kids, but still no serious issues. It is a family campground, after all. The bathrooms and showers mostly worked. But, sometimes things break and are out of order. We were about a 30 second walk from the dumpster and water station. Even with the burn ban, people were still building fires in the fire pit. It wasn't really cold, so we chose not to risk being the reason for another wildfire. Badin Lake is still one of my favorite places to visit.

Good view of the lake. The tent pads are gravel but very reasonable. The fire ring was a big bigger than we are used to.... with a raised grate for the fire to sit on... so a slightly different set up and a ring on the ground.

The campsites are nice, bathrooms are decent, and most of the sites are a short walk to the lake. The price is pretty good for what you get. There is a grill, picnic table, and fire ring at every site which is nice. The only downside is that some of the sites are pretty close together, which is standard at other similar campsites. I had great cell signal the whole time which was a plus.

Great place for during the week. I heard it was crowded on the weekends. Beautiful sunset views from the campsites along the waterfront

Campground was clean and nice. Reasonably priced, decent shower and bathroom facilities. Beautiful to camp right on the water.

Always an excellent stay for my wife and I. We enjoy the space between sites and the 5mi hike around the lake is beautiful.

Running water bathrooms, showers. Hiking trails. Lake front if on the outside of the loop. Level ground big enough for one large tent or two small ones. Long parking area for one RV, one truck and trailer, or two cars for each campsite. Picnic table, fire pit with grill, separate grill for charcoal. Running drinking water in the loop to share. No cell phone reception, though. My wife and I plan to come back. Cool, but not too cold in December.
