I've been going to this campground for many years, and I really still enjoy it although it doesn't and hasn't had water for quite a while. Now that I am elderly it's becoming harder for me to launch my boat when the water starts going down because the dock doesn't extend the length of the launch pad. I really hope for all of us that have and will continue camping here that they would consider placing an extended dock to make it easier for many of us that camp here at North Gorge campground. We're not asking for water resources but just one more piece of dock so we can launch our boat in the fall months. Otherwise this is the best campground of all if you don't mind pit toilets.

It was stunning! There was minimal / no shade at the site we chose when it got to the hottest point so be prepared for that. Clean, easy to access and a wonderful time.
