It is just a beautiful campground! Staff is very nice. Plenty of shade, and a good view of the lake. The thing I like the most is your not packed in. They a very spacious sites. They only thing I would like to see improved upon is there aren't water hydrants very near. If you plan to stay a while it would be nice to be able to run a hose to a hydrant to refill water supply. I will be back.

Nice quiet park. Clean facilities, plenty of space at the campsite, fire wood available for purchase. Lake was very nice as well!

The campground was beautiful! The sites are giant and private. Site 15 was hilly, but there was a large patch that was flat enough for our tent so it wasnt an issue. Short drive to Pellas main street, which was lovely. Highly recommend!

I felt the picture did not accurately represent the actual camping spot, so I felt a little misled. But the time spent there was pleasant, and it is a nice campground.

Very nice, well maintained COE park! Great bike trail too! We enjoyed walking around the town of Pella. Lots of good places to eat and abundant shopping. Highly recommend!

Our spot had a large slope. I fell twice

Very nice campground however there are no trash cans or dumpsters anywhere within the campground itself, only at the exit dump. Very inconvenient.

Great time
@GeorgeD0CC6BDD · Camped on Jun 8, 2025 at Campsite #52
A very clean and well laid out park. If anything was off it was that the dump stations were not level so you could not fully drain your tanks.
@DustinS0A1E9AE · Camped on Jun 6, 2025 at Campsite #13
One of the most pleasant campsites I've been to recently
@TERESAS8098881 · Camped on Jun 4, 2025 at Campsite #67
I always enjoy camping here and using the shelter house for our Saturday Night potluck. Sure wish there were full hookups tho!

Wallashuck never disappoints. Large sites with ample green space between the campsites. Love all the trees and being able to watch and listen to all the birds.

LOVE the shade that Wallashuck offers. The shower house was ALWAYS clean.

Beautiful place to camp enjoyed watching all the birds and going on nature walks
@RoxanneRFEE659 · Camped on May 22, 2025 at Campsite #30
Would be nice if mowed..by Wednesday or Thursday, grass were up to our ankles. They showed up late on a Friday evening after everyone at all campsites were set up. Need to do better with that.
@KyleK5426318 · Camped on May 11, 2025 at Campsite #50
Always a nice stay. Nice facilities that are kept clean.
@DebV0C0023C5AC · Camped on May 6, 2025 at Campsite #30
nice view of lake; would like to see the spot leveled as it slopes to the north and away from camper steps, have to use add'l platform. Our steps are at rear of 5th wheel, makes for a long climb to get in camper
@LaurieF3425140 · Camped on May 5, 2025 at Campsite #14
Nice spacious campsites. Great walking/bike trail.
@CraigF8635877 · Camped on Apr 25, 2025 at Campsite #39
One of our favorites. Clean, well kept facilities. Staff was friendly and helpful. Close to Pella for supplies and entertainment.
@DebCD2590B5780 · Camped on Apr 24, 2025 at Campsite #5
Large, partially shaded site bordered by a field and close to the shower house/restrooms. A swale cuts through the middle, so pitch your tent away from it if heavy rain is forecast or you could have a river flowing through your tent. We appreciated that there are no bright lights overhead, unlike some other sites. We saw three deer in the field one evening. Unfortunately, a noisy baffle on the bluebird house rattled all night with the slightest breeze, keeping me awakeI put in a request to have it adjusted. Fire ring was emptied of ash when we arrived and there were no apparent widowmakers in the overhanging branches.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
