Bluegill Lake Family Camping Resort

Kim Swartwood

We arrived at that campground and was initially was treated well by the wife. We had three campsites for our group. All of us have dogs. My friend and I took our dogs down to the beach to get acclimated. My dog scowled a my friends dog a few times loudly as they were running and playing. The owner Paul came up and ask who’s dog was doing that and I told him mine. He told me that I needed to take my dog back to my campsite and put him in my camper and leave them inside all weekend long. My friend told him that was not going to happen. Paul proceeded to to say, do you know who you’re talking to. My friend said I don’t care kick me out and give me my money back. We decided to talk to the wife to try to reason with them being that we were already unpacked and set up. She seemed open to my dog but asked her husband to step in. And he said absolutely not. He wanted us to leave worrying that my dog would bite a person. He was not nice in anyway he did not want to meet my dog. He was a completely rude unreasonable man. My dog is not aggressive to people whatsoever but when he plays with another dog, he plays hard. This place is not dog friendly at all. Don’t go if you have dogs. Also I have a paddleboard and was told I could not take it out on the lake unless Paul the husband approves. Plus they have alot of black flies. Pond lake is weedy!

We love the chill and quiet of this smaller campground! Nancy and Paul are so nice and we've camped here for years! The good and the bad is if you have ATT service you will not have service. Which can be good for a quiet weekend. ;) There is wifi at the store if you need it though!

Very Rude Owners, no fun allowed!! Very strict rules!!! I don't let my family camp or visit the store. Just horrible!!! Edit- as a resident nearby ive been in your park enough to know you guys are extreamly unwelcoming, and have talked with aprox 4 of your seasonal/past residents to know they feel the same way.

My family just got back from our Labor Day camping trip at Bluegill. If you are looking for peace and quiet, then this is it. Nancy and Paul really pride themselves on having a peaceful and wholesome family campground. They have large sites that are very clean, 50amp is what we had. My family honestly loved every minute. Nancy was an absolute sweetheart to my family, especially my crazy four year old who loved stopping into her store. Sometimes kids are not always quiet, but Nancy and Paul never mentioned a peep about my kids and honestly, I really didn’t hear any loudness from any groups or kids. Both want you to have a wonderful time but also be respectful to others during your stay. I absolutely love the themed weekends, the many many kid activities, fishing and swimming. Thank you for a wonderful weekend and we hope to be back next year.

Nice quiet campground, very nice lake. We spent two seasons there, Paul and Nancy are good hosts. Store is stocked very well and is not as expensive as I thought it would be for a camp store. But with everything there are pro's and con's. The Pro's 1. It's a very quiet campground. 2. You get a pretty decent load of wood for $13 3. Camp sites are bigger than most. 4. Nice walking trail that goes around the lake. 5. Nice clean restrooms with showers. 6. They do alot for the kids, crafts, bike parades, and such The Con's 1. It's almost too quiet, 2. They are not motorcycle friendly, if you ride you'll have to park at the camp store and walk to your site, the reason I got was "motorcycles are to loud", there are trucks that are louder than my bike that come in every weekend. There is a lady rider who literally has to ride past her camp site to park at the store and walk back to her site. I watched an older couple pull in across from our site with a motorcycle on the back of his rig and he rode out and back from his camp site, I guess if you drive a 200K motor home towing a 50K jeep the rules are different. 3. They don't do much for the adults, be nice to see an organized corn hole, washer toss or euchre tournament. 4. Not a lot to do in the surrounding area, casino is about and hour away if you're into that. 5. No gas golf carts, again "their too loud" be prepared to pay extra for electric for your seasonal spot. 6. Can't bring your own canoe in you have to rent from them. Again if your looking for a nice quiet campground this is your place, if you're a night owl and would like to stay up late and have fun around your camp fire please be aware that the owners will come out of nowhere and tell you to quiet down even if no one has complained, we never had this problem but know of those who did. Also had a guys weekend with my brother and 2 friends, they asked my neighbor to "let them know if there were any problems" that didn't sit well with me at all.

Husband and I have been looking for a small quiet campground. Took a Sunday afternoon to take a drive up north and found this place. When driving in it looked cute, plenty of empty sites, small pond/lake and a general store. While going threw the campground we were met by whom I guessed is the owner on a golf cart. He pulled in front of our van and cut us off. Slurring and Sloppy drunk telling us that it's private property, we don't want you here, and we had to leave. Even though the sign out front clearly says "open to the public" and it's not like we were setting up camp. We were scouting and greatful we did. He was rude, obnoxious and drunk. If this is how you treat people looking for a place of relaxation, I would hate to see what it's like to actually stay there. Avoid this place!

Thank you for your hospitality. The campground features decent campsites and amenities. If you are seeking a peaceful out of the way camping experience this campground is that. Our group was a large family gathering with numerous energetic children and adults who enjoyed staying up late into the night sharing life experiences; we were loud at times but respectful moderating our behaviors as considerate people do. Nancy and Paul did not have to administer warnings and were generous with fixing campsite locations.

Beautiful and friendly! Very well maintained. Has that old time family reunion atmosphere. Our site was on a hill overlooking the quaint sitting fed lake. Lots of grass, not much dirt which is great. Owners are very friendly. Highly recommend if you are looking for a quiet family experience. I'm regards to negative reviews... If you own a dog the rule is to leash it! That's on you. If you are driving a class A it's not their fault you can't read... Very few 50amp mostly 25 so don't complain. Why mention in ground sewer as being an issue if you know coming in it's not available? Bathrooms are Kitchy but cute and clean. Quiet campground... If you are a huge group and loud I understand why you were asked to leave.

We stayed 3 nights in the cabin. The owners were very nice! They educated my kids about their turtles on the land and they seem to love their wildlife and want to protect it. The park is very relaxing and quiet. I included pictures of the inside of the cabin and the view. Also, the swimming area and the stack of wood I received for $13 (a lot!). I read some mixed reviews (wood, electric box, showers) so I was a little nervous. However, I believe it was a nice place to go! Showers are typical camping showers, nothing special but cleaned and gets the job done! The owners are nice and seem laid back. I would stay here again!

We where really leary on going to this campground due to all of the negative reviews. Well we went anyways and tried it out. Nancy is a really nice lady and it was a very quite but fun holiday weekend. They had so much for our kids to do. Our kids are beginning us to go back next year. As long as you fallow the rules it's not a bad place.
