Well, lots to be said about this campground. First, the assistant manager was very helpful with me when an entitled woman decided to remove my laundry from the machine. Thank you for your help. The staff here are great, the campground could use some TLC. Far too many potholes on the path around the lake. The laundry needs a plumber to install proper drainage so it doesn't flood. The lake itself is rather muddy, and the fish consist of Catfish, Carp, and Small mouth Bass. The park hardly had any sewer sites so be prepared to use public bathrooms or dump stations. I have stayed here 3 times and the water has been turned off for at least a day during all 3 visits which I found odd. Park has too many people on the verge of homeless staying at it, these people bouncing back and forth between the local thousand trails parks around. Like that's not what the parks were designed for and it shouldn't be allowed. Outside of that most sites are 30 amp. The grounds are fairly well kept, bathrooms are clean, overall 4 out of 5 stars.

Reading other reviews, It looks like they've been trying really hard to improve the appearance of Lake Mindon campground. I was impressed with how clean and neat everything was. The common ground areas were well mowed and maintained. The miniature golf area was in excellent shape.The lodge was neat and clean and well stocked. The restroom in section A, where there is full hookups, was a little old, but clean.The restroom in section D, where there is only electric and water, was in excellent shape, including the big showers. I would have no problem using those showers or restroom. Next time I come to visit, I will stay in section D because there's a little more room between the campsites. Section A is a little tight but it's closer to all the amenities, such as the lodge, golf and boat dock.

If you don't want to be a buffet for mosquitoes, please save yourself and your kids. Stay away from this place. Update after 4days, my friend that I invited to camp with us just went to urgent care today, because of the insect bites she got from this place is not getting better, and the doctor said it was from a flea not mosquitoes. So yeah they better do something about this infested place.

Lake Minden is a nice park, with nice staff, and RVers. I definitely recommend visiting. A couple items to be aware of. Water pressure is very low which is not necessarily a bad thing because your saving on water and your tanks don't full up so fast. I recommend keeping water in your fresh tank as a backup. They did have to turn the water off for 3 hours but the staff literally came door to door the day before preparing everyone in advance and even left a note if you weren't home. So everyone had the opportunity to prepare and fill your tanks if needed. Secondly, there are LOTS of mosquitoes!!! Not the parks fault but bring your bug spray, mosquito net, and any type of repellent because you won't be able to stay outside for long. One recommendation is to mow the grassy areas between sites because mosquitos love tall grass. My wifi signal was good and was able to switch from TMobile to Starlink only because my site had trees and I would have had to place my dish in the middle of the road or across from my site. I chose neither because I did not want vehicles driving over my cord which another RVer chose to do.....yikes.... I believe most or all sites are 30 amp. The class A across from me said his was 30 amp. Electric was good. Looks like they are are replacing pedestals because mine was brand new. They have paddle boats to rent but due to the numerous mosquitos it would have been very difficult. Lake Miden is truly a nice park, they were full the whole time I was visiting, close to shopping, and Walmart delivers as well. Looking forward to see what other things they add to the park. Happy and safe travels 🚌

This place was a nightmare for us. There was 2 Hispanic, 1 white and 1 black person staying together .The lady said she was the assistant manager. We booked our stay through thousand trails. She locked the bathrooms, told us we were unable to charge our phones on the property, she refused us the right to cook even though there was a grill on every campsite. A white couple was however allowed to cook on their own personal grill not using what the property gave for us! We had bought their fishing license for $8. She came over and told my son(Hispanic) and a black man who was another guest that fishing wasn’t allowed. They both showed their permits and they were in a fishing area she said she makes the rules and couldn’t fish. However it was posted no fishing on the dock! A white man was fishing there. She said nothing to him or asked him to move! Or even asked for his license!!! It was very obviously that we were being treated differently than the other white guests! I will never go back or recommend this place to anyone. A very sad experience!!! It’s 2025 and people are still racist…

This park had a lovely grassy area by the lake with a couple, nice outdoor amenities. Unfortunately, they had a dumpster across from the site that was overflowing onto the ground. We endured the flies for our two day stay. It was so bad, we couldn't spend anytime outdoors and everytime we opened the front door, the flies came in. It was unsanitary, and really ruined the experience. Spoke to two of the staff members about it, but they seemed unconcerned. Apparently this is an ongoing problem as there were other sites with outdoor fly traps. An additional pickup day should be called in by the management responsible for this campground. Consider relocating the dumpster to the other end of the parking area, away from camper sites.

We went tent camping and tried to do some fishing. Great location for us. It is relatively close. The grounds were well taking care of and the sites were clean. It wasn't very busy at this time of year. No fish this time but we feed them a lot of worms! The bathrooms were not bad. The ones that were open to us were close and for a campground were nice. The building need renovations but they were clean! Staff were friendly and professional! Check in was easy. They are updating the area with new renovations here and there. Disappointing experience was they removed the store entirely. I was hoping to get hot dog buns bud had to go to the gas station nearby. So no store there anymore for fishing supplies. We had a great time though!

The reason I’m giving it one star is because I rented a cabin and I’m a member and there’s cattails all around it so you can’t fish off of it or look at the view like you want to also, there is two trees blocking the view from the cabin, very sad and I wish that they would clean that up so I could enjoy The view of the lake and the sunset in the sun rises from my balcony instead of a tree blocking my Vision. The utensils are from like the dollar tree, but still usable the pillows bring your own because it’s not a pillow. It’s just a mushy fluffy something terrible if you’re paying that much you should have a nice pillow. The beds are good to sleep in the campsite is well-maintained, but don’t walk on the grass without shoes because it’s all stickers And thorns all in all. I had a good time with my friend and while we were camping but still poor view looking forward to next year of maybe the outside of the lake around the lake is cleaned up better. The cat tells are taking over the lake. I’m gonna go take a photo cause I ask for a photo
