We walk at Ramsey Lake State Park 3-5 times a week and camp there a few times a year. We always enjoy the views and how clean the campground is kept. Its great for a nights stay on the way through our area or a weeks stay.

Love this lake. I have been coming here for 33 years. Great place for family time. Fushing, hiking trails, riding bikes.

Love this park. Only thing I do not care for are the ticks lol. Everyone ya run into here are friendly. Did however run into some crazy and loud mushroom hunters. Oh wait that was us. Nevermind. Great park to relax and enjoy family

Beautiful park with really nice campsites. A bit compact with closer quarters than some places so maybe not the ideal place to camp for those who want to get away from it all. You reserve your site for $20 on line however a $6 fee is added for this and that - not a deal-breaker though. All-around nice experience with a view of the lake down a hill out the back window. Looking forward to going back in the Fall as there are electric boxes at the sites where we were parked.

Great campground. Bath houses are very nice for a state park. The park is usually pretty full, but the sites are fairly large. It's one of our favorite campgrounds.

I absolutely love the horse camp campground lots of spaced trees and shade the trails were totally awesome. Disappointed though that the campsites do not have electric or water. There was only one waterfaucet out of I believe maybe 20 camp sites and there was a sign on it that says do not drink the water so we were not able to give our horses any water and they were extremely thirsty and hot. I would love to camp there sometimes. I really enjoyed the trails. There are wide, plenty of space and then you could ride around fields if you want to.

We took a shot on booking 3 spots, as no one had ever been to Ramsey Lake before. There were limited pictures, and not much information on their showers, etc. We were pleasantly surprised at how lovely the campground was! It is clean, spacious, with mature, very tall trees, and the lake is gorgeous! It's on the small side, but it's still a great lake to fish and just enjoy being by the water. We will be back!

Really nice State Park & campground. The campground is full of mature Oak trees with ample shade. Grounds are well kept, and shower houses are clean and well maintained. With the abundance of trees, a few sites are challenging to get into if you have a really big rig, or your backing skills aren't sharp. The inner loop has several water sources, but the outer loop isn't far away from water, of you need to fill. The outer loop has Lakeview sites. The lake is small, but perfectly suited for paddling. We camped in site 50. For the most part, the sites are level, with minimal adjustment needed. Campground roads are paved and in perfect condition. Electric was stable and there is a dump station on the way out. There is a scenic drive loop around the park, and several hiking trails. Weather was warm and humid, so no hiking this trip. There are a couple of playgrounds for the kids, with climbers and swings. There are lots of squirrels, so be careful what you leave laying around. Quite a few Red Headed Woodpeckers to watch throughout the day. Ask in all, a very nice campground, lake and park.

So beautiful especially in the fall. Watch out for the yellow jackets, but everything else was great. The lake is amazingly calm perfect for kayaks. A little disappointed that the fire ring was so tall you couldn't enjoy watching the fire, but it was safer for those who have little ones.
