Hayes State Park Campground-East Loop

I love Hayes state park, I only usually go for the Halloween trick or treating event i used to go as a child, Now its a tradition to join my aunt n uncle taking my kids to get candy and camp. Very safe and friendly never any issues or fights going on. Some of the gatehouse staff are cranky or way to uptight, but they also have very pleasant staff as well.

Pros: It’s a nice campground. East loop seems to have bigger sites than the west loop although we saw some sites in the west loop that had water hook ups. Most of the sites have woods behind them which is nice for privacy. The dump station has 3 stalls and seems newer than others at state parks. Cons: The water is horrendous. It was cloudy with a foul odor.

The first time at the park was very nice. Boat launches in the park. You do need to drive to the beach, but real close. Bathrooms were clean.

After swimming all 5 Great Lakes Lobo and I found the perfect place to spend the weekend. Hayes State Park, for you who may not know that is my last name. It seemed appropriate to celebrate our accomplishment their. We played at the beach and met many new friends along to way. The campground was a little tight to get around in, but so is a parking lot when you have a 40' rig. Anyway it was a relaxing stay and we'll definitely visit again. For now onward. #LivinLoboLife #WanderingWiL

Aways a great time! Showers are always clean. We make new friends every time we camp here. Amazing lake walking/biking distance from the camp sites. Dollar General and a Convenience Store just outside the park. We've visited several times and will continue!
