Never had camped here before but due to the closure of Prairie Flower, Cherry Glen & Howell Station camping is very limited!! Don’t know why they closed all at same time!!

The campground is well set up, especially for folks with RVs or campers. Every site has an electric hook up, fire pit, and picnic table and there are a few water spigots around the campground so some sites will get lucky and be right by one. The dump station and water fill are fairly convenient at the far end of the loop, though you do have to go out the exit and make a loop through to get to them because of the layout. The restrooms were pretty good and they do have private shower stalls, though I didn't try them during my stay. The location right next to the dam makes getting to Saylorville lake quick and convenient and the same goes for the other recreation areas nearby.

One dump station situated so you have to leave and come back in to campsite is STUPID... Needs more potable water stations...You would a "Federal" campground would be better setup. Add WIFI come into this century

Bob's Shelter Campground has become a favorite of mine. It's fairly quiet and clean and just a comfortable place to be.
