This campground is well maintained with very nice hosts. Firewood is available on-site at a self serve station. The bathrooms are clean and conveniently located. Wallashuck is located in close proximity to the town of Pella which offers a lot of small town charm!

Had site 2. Level side to side but slopes off to the back so you need to come down in the front quite a bit to level but it’s doable. Nice privacy with some shade late. Verizon signal good able to stream tv. Just an overnight for us but would stay again if in the area.

Nice place. Just electric hook up where we were. Needs a couple more dump stations. Traffic stacks up rather quickly in the afternoon.

Another beautiful Corps of Engineers campground. Electric sites $11 with America the beautiful pass. Reserving in advance is recommended however if there are any open sites you can call and reserve when you arrive.

I've stayed at this campground many times so far this summer. No bad experiences. It is well maintained, with lots of trees, and the wildlife that live there. I've seen wild turkeys just trotting past my tent. I will be back and have recommended it to friends!

Nice campground and lake. Bathrooms were nice. Several trails to use. Bicycle and walking. You are 2 miles from Pella if you are short supplies. Be sure to hit the bakeries. Beach looked good and boating. You are close to Knoxville, where you could take in a dirt track race.

Well landscaped. I believe restrooms and showers could be upgraded

Beautiful campground surrounded by woods on three sides, lake on one. Lots of sites. No full hook up but it has a boat ramp.

Been camping at Wallashuck Campgrounds for about 25 years its our favorite. Fishing from the big asphalt dock has always been a good place for catfish. It's quite at bedtime no parties no noise if you have kids they can sleep peacefully even in tents.
