Carter Lake

Nice and quiet little campground. Not many large sites for a trailer or rv. We stuffed ours into a pull through site. In length it fit with plenty of room, but we had inches to spare when he put the slide out. A lot of the sites don’t have a large area near your trailer, if that’s what you have, but almost like a parking area then a few steps to the typical wide spot where you spend time in camp or set up your tent. We were camped on the lake side which was great because I unloaded our kayaks and just beached them below our camp. Has a decent trail to the beach with is about a mile or so. Easy enough our 5 year old walked it. It also doesn’t have any fine access so we didn’t have any 4 wheelers running around camp which I appreciated. We would camp here again.

My family has been camping here for over 30 years. While it lacks the amenities of the larger campgrounds, it’s small and quiet. My kids love swimming in the lake and playing on the sand dunes. It was flooded last season, and I’m thrilled to see it open again in 2018.
