Customer Reviews
Our extended stay at Jackson Lake Campground was, unfortunately, a series of disappointments that revealed a significant gap between what was promised and what was delivered. The website and signage promote inflatables in the lake — there were none. The so-called “lake” is more accurately described as a shallow garbage riddled mud hole, and both the lake and the pool were closed for more than half the summer. When the pool was open, it was overrun by the public, leaving paying campers unable to enjoy it. The campsites themselves were consistently muddy and poorly maintained. The road leading into the property is riddled with potholes — to the point that vehicle damage feels inevitable. Campers are expected to cut their own grass, which is shocking given the already high site fees. The u
We started our camping trip with getting stuck in the mud because it was pouring down rain. We called the front office and Aaliyah dispatched Oliver, who came to assess the situation and then brought two buckets of gravel to help us get out of the spot we were in. Then, my blood sugar dropped to a dangerous level and I called Aaliyah again and she sent Oliver with some soda to bring my blood sugar back up. Oliver gave us the name and number of a tow truck so that we could get out of the mud we were stuck in. Later, Oliver came by our campsite to make sure we were getting settled in well and made some suggestions for a quick meal. The staff has been extraordinary, very helpful, pleasant and friendly. The pool was fun and clean. We did fish from the pond, but didn’t catch anything :(. All in
The pool and the lake were both closed to swim. It was 90° and we set up our tent over red ants which scared my 6 year old. Then we were not able to swim anywhere. I paid $50 to be able to swim with my kid. They were rude and unhelpful and gave me a $5 refund. We will not return. I would not have stayed but it would have disappointed my kid. Overall very disappointing. They should inform people before their stays that all the amenities are closed.
We went camping here last weekend and of course we had a good time because we were with good people. I chose this Campground because I saw that there was a lake with inflatables that we could have fun on. I read the website prior to going, which said the pool was closed after Labor Day weekend. It said nothing about the lake and in my head I thought well why in the world would you shut a lake down? Saturday morning we got our swimsuits on drove around the campground couldn’t find where this lake was so we stopped in the store to ask. Turns out the lake is a nasty small pond, and it was indeed closed. I told the man working in the store that maybe they should update their website to say that the Lake and pool were closed after Labor Day. Then got an attitude with me And repeatedly kept sayi
Honestly a pretty nice place. We stayed right by the lake in a tent, site 204. Bathrooms were clean, and I saw them get cleaned at least once a day while I was there. I think the lake and pool were closed for swimming which was a bummer, but the lake looked like it had some algae so that may have been why for the lake at least, not sure about the pool. Prices in their shop were pretty good, and you’re required to buy firewood there and it was reasonably priced. My only complaint is that there was some poison ivy on a couple of trees on my site so we weren’t able to hang up my hammock, but not a huge deal. Very friendly staff! And even though they were busy, it was a quiet atmosphere.
