Reviews

Georgetown Lake and associated parks offer spacious, scenic campgrounds with beautiful lake views, shaded sites, and access to hiking and water activities. Visitors frequently praise the friendly and helpful staff, peaceful environment, and convenient proximity to nearby amenities and towns. The parks are generally clean and well-maintained with covered picnic tables, fire pits, and wildlife sightings enhancing the experience. However, recurring concerns include outdated or poorly maintained restrooms and showers, uneven or sloped campsites that challenge larger rigs, occasional noise disturbances especially on weekends, inconsistent enforcement of rules, and limited dump station availability. Some visitors also note issues with maintenance of grounds, trash management, and occasional disruptive guests or limited security presence. Despite these challenges, many campers find the parks favorable for their natural beauty and plan to return.

Really nice campsite. Great check in staff. Major issue is the sites on the lake side drop off a cliff and super dangerous for kids. There is a single wire to stop you falling over which is not enough. They really need to properly fence it. We had a 2 and 5 year old with us and it was hard to relax with the worry of them chasing a ball over the edge. Overall very nice site.

Park was nice, the trees need to be cleared from the road ways so RV equipment doesn't drag branches that are way to close to roads. I'll be back.

Nice campground with large campsites. But if you get cedar fever, this might not be the camp for you during cedar fever season.

Enjoyed the hiking trail: an instant immersion into nature, and my dogs (leashed) enjoyed the trail as well. Stayed at Campsite 21 (tent camping), amazing view of Lake Georgetown.
