We camped in B loop for 7 days last week and had a great time. The park was clean and everyone we encountered was super friendly and courteous. I did notice on the second night, my circuit analyzer was showing an "Open Neutral" and my power cord was getting Hot on the 30A outlet. I was able to get in touch with one of the campground volunteers who immediately called maintenance. While I was speaking with these volunteers, my wife flagged down a different volunteer who happened to be passing by. Within about 15mins., both volunteers showed up with a 50A to 30A adapter for us to connect to the 50A outlet. This worked great and we had no other issues. The next morning maintenance showed up to verify that we were still good to go. I was extremely impressed by how quickly everyone respo

We stayed at Wax Campground for the Labor Day Holiday. When I reserved it- somewhat last minute- I snagged the last available electric site. Our site was 70 feet, back-in (section B). Set up is good and easy to park our travel trailer in. Still had room for both of our vehicles in front of camper. Short walk to the bathhouse- which was extremely clean. Yes it is an older building- but they maintain it very well. Trash was always emptied. Showers were clean. My only complaint- The 2nd and 4th shower stalls- the shower heads had almost zero water pressure- makes it hard to rinse out your hair. ||We've stayed at other campgrounds for the holiday weekends and the bathrooms are always nasty dirty by Monday Check out- NOT the case here at Wax. ||Price is great and we will definitely be back.

I cut the grass here but it is definitely a beautiful place to relax and camp n hide out for awhile

Beautiful campsite! Quiet, clean, and patrolled frequently by both rangers and the sheriff department. The restroom and showers were wonderful and very clean. Our site was right on the water. Cell service is spotty but expected. A dollar general is close and Buoys is next door with excellent food. We can't wait to come back!

We stayed in C11 on a Tuesday night in our tent with our baby and toddler. The loop wasn't even a third full and everyone was quiet and respectful. The bathrooms were clean and close. We swam in the lake, accessed just down the hill from our site. There was a great mini rock beach with a bunch of driftwood. If tent camping, plan to set up on the gravel pad and have a mallet or hammer for your tent stakes because the ground is hard. This was a great family friendly spot!
