It was a quiet loop with a glimpse of the lake. There's easy access to the bike trail. Bathrooms were clean, give or take some cobwebs.

Very pleasant except the weather wasn't good
@RoxaneKD96B1C6 · Camped on Oct 10, 2025 at Campsite #25
Would be nice to have a later check out time. Some of the other place around are 3pm verses noon. That was really the only thing that I didn't like.

Had a great relaxing weekend. We were in spot 52 - perfect for our trailer. Beautiful scenery and peaceful at the site.

Nice, level, well spaced sites. Pleasant campground hosts. Restrooms clean, spacious, well lit and convenient location. But, showers were ok except for moldy wall tiles and fuzzy grout.

It was our first time here. The campground was so clean and well kept. The shower house and bathrooms were clean. The space between sites is so good. It was peaceful. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. It's very close to Pella. We will definitely stay at Wallashuck again.

Had site 2. Level side to side if you are towards the back but slopes off to the back so you need to come down in the front quite a bit to level but it's doable. Nice privacy with some shade late. Verizon signal good able to stream tv. Just an overnight for us but would stay again if in the area.

Clean, grass mowed, plenty of room
@RonaldB5973203 · Camped on Aug 10, 2025 at Campsite #52
We like Wallashuck because it is far from traffic noise. The restrooms were very clean and well maintained. We have camped at Wallashuck many times and have never been disappointed.
@RollandPE5A187 · Camped on Aug 9, 2025 at Campsite #65
The camp sites are excellent! They are spacious and well maintained. Overall, the park is pristine. With tall shade trees, an abundance of wildlife, and the beauty of the lake it is second to none.

Absolutely amazing place, quiet and beautiful. We had a great time and will definitely be back.All the sites are nicely spaced, clean with easy access. The access to the bike trails is right off the main road.
@GeneM819D83A05 · Camped on Jul 29, 2025 at Campsite #3
friendly, campsite and bathrooms clean. We saw a car riding on the walking trail. There are no barriers on the walking trail that crosses the road. That was not safe for walkers, bicycles that were on the trail enjoying the scenery. Please consider blocking the trails so that cars cannot enter for the safety of others.

restroom maintenance excellent, very helpful staff
@MichaelP381919 · Camped on Jul 15, 2025 at Campsite #38
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.

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.
