Spent the weekend here at site #6 (across from the dock) and had a wonderful weekend. What a spectacular campground. We have a tent in the box of our truck, and the site had lots of room. The park staff were very helpful and friendly, and the other guests were wonderful. There were lots of kids near our site as we were across from the dock and close to the beach, but those kids were all very well behaved. There is lots for people to do at the park, with a beautiful clean beach, huge inflatable water toys, kayaks ans canoes and lots of fish to catch. I fell asleep to the sound of loons, and watched rhe stars. In the morning the sunrise was beautiful. Fabulous place to relax.

I was in Woodland Campground for the week of June 10 -17, 2024 . It's Family oriented and Pet free .The hosts are very friendly and accommodating. The restrooms and showers , were cleaner than any place I've seen yet . Beautiful scenery, I really enjoyed my week . Super quiet through the week. Even the tornado warning storm that blew through was a beautiful sight to witness . I definitely recommend this quant yet large campground to anyone .
