Stayed at Campsite 48 this past weekend from Friday-Monday. This campsite was the best campsite I’ve stayed at in years! It had water and electric, picnic table, fire pit and grill. The space was perfect for my large tent on the crest of the hill, away from the fire pit and picnic table. We had space between the neighboring campsites to where we felt we had privacy. It was quiet at night too. The bathroom/showers were a little bit of a walk away, but we didn’t mind it. The lake was gorgeous to get out on on the paddle board. There’s a swimming beach and swings. 10 out of 10, would recommend!

Best camp site in all of the USA!! I've been to Ayers Lake over 30 times in the last 25 years. I've been in all of the cabins, fished, swam, partied, and always had a blast. The new owners are even better than the old owners, and they were pretty dang nice. I love this place and highly recommend it to EVERYONE! You won't be disappointed!!

My wife's cousin Rick and his wife have a nice camp here and for the last couple of years we've been coming up visiting and enjoying this place. We're from upstate NY. The owners of this beautiful place have done a fantastic job trying to give locals a place to be by the water. When I say relaxing it's peaceful tranquil quaint quiet. Everyone is so friendly and nice though the camp grounds.

The kids love it here! The water is shallow and easy for my kids to manage without assistance and yet they think they are so far out. I always bring my kayaks and just beach them right on the shore of our cottage site. The staff is very friendly and Ron is always on top of things there. Also I think the best sunsets happen here ❤️ I would recommend again and again.

Absolutely loved camping here. Very quiet and our site was right on the water with shrubs on three sides, so you felt like you were at your own lake. Very friendly campers there. A great pick -your-own farm not too far away with amazing peaches
