Customer Reviews
Nice campground with a boat launch and some nice size spots. Biggest issue is people in the campground using the boat launch for extra vehicle parking. The other issue is campers not observing quit hours and running generators at all hours. Campground host was non existent so there's nobody to address these issues with.
Loved it at this campground. Had a lake side camp site and a 30 ft camper fit great. Could see the lake from our site but can't swim right at your site, have to go to the beach which is only a short distance and there was a trail down to the lake from our site where we pulled our boat up to park at. Secluded and peaceful. Nice beach. Short walk to Bobbers Bar for food and cold drinks. Definitely would stay here again.
Love the lake, but definitely DO NOT like the people currently at site 15, as they have been running a generator all through the night, when quiet time is 10pm and it says it when you are singing up for your site as well, so they know, and for the host not enforcing this, is sad. A quiet camping trip with the family, turns into us up throughout the night with the generator. Either find another way (as the website even says this as well) or go to a resort.
Will definitely come back! Great hosts, they actually came over to introduce themselves as well as meet our dogs. We loved our site as it was very level, large and well taken care of. It was really quiet around us compared to the other side of the camp grounds as it was really just us, the boat landing and the hosts! Was very pleased surprised how fresh the bathrooms were given the humidity (zero smell). We will be back!
We just spent two nights at Williams Narrows. We left a day earlier than planned. We had site #8 which was way too close to the boat landing and beach which meant high traffic and not much privacy. Also, too close to the toilets which smelled worse than any vault toilet I’ve ever experienced. Just not what we were expecting. Bit of a bummer. Was hard to tell how close things were based on the maps online. Mosquitos also terrible. Usually this time of year they’re better by now. 😕 Weather was pleasant and mild though.
