Dower Lake Recreation Area Campground

This was a wonderful place to camp! Large spots for rustic and electric camping alike. There are plenty of things to do between swimming, the park, volleyball, disc golf, the pier, and just a nice area to walk around. Free firewood, which was awesome! Free shower rooms (not the newest) with plenty of hot water (after about a minute), definitely could use new hooks to hang things on, or perhaps a shelf....but we felt safe and got clean! My son and I very much enjoyed our stay here!

Awesome little campground. Level pads, noise was kept to a minimum. Showers need help. They were clean, but old. Smelled like a washing machine. Stains on walls from years of water. Just needs an overhaul. The amount of "campers only" signs and "we will prosecute" notices about keeping the shower clean or vandalism was concerning. We felt safe in the area, but the signage was more than excessive.

Beautiful campground!! Quiet! Bathrooms are wonderful, the only issue was all the water on the floor! The campsites are big and spacious. Docks everywhere. Playground is nice. Staples is a short 6 minute drive away for anything you may have forgot or for live bait!

Great spot to camp, right off the highway but peaceful. Small swimming area for the kids, playground as well Plenty of cut wood to burn was so nice as we had a fire going all weekend

It's a decent place to go, "Free wood" means bring a chain saw, gotta cut it and haul it yourself but hey it's free. Unfortunately didn't know this until we got here and had nothing to cut the wood with. Bathrooms are 2 steps up from a Porta potty, but there is no one on-site, camp host spot looks like it hasn't been occupied in months. City parks and rec rolled through this morning and "cleaned" the rest rooms I thought, 1 of the toilets were clogged by another camper and not usable. Otherwise it's a pleasant quiet place to go right on the lake.
