The campsites were very spaced out. This site specifically was a little sketchy to back into as its downhill and you have to back around a curve kind of, but once youre in its great! I loved the multiple levels, and it has a little unofficial trail down to the water which was AMAZING. We were able to lay our baby down for a nap and still take the older kids to swim because we had a direct view of the camper and could be back to it within 30 seconds. The only downfall was that due to the multiple levels, there was no breeze near the picnic table area

Just a over night tent camping trip but we had a great time. Had super nice neighbors and that made the stay that much better. Campground was clean, restroom and shower was good, scenery was beautiful with great weather. You really can't ask for more.

Site were a little rough looking- weeds knee high and washout spots.. the beach was nice but again the washout to the water made a huge step yo drag cooler up or down.

This was a nice spot. Theres no water at the site but there is water nearby if you need it. A quiet area for a relaxing weekend and the beach was nice to go to as well.

Our family loves to camp here. We keep trying different sites to find our favorite and so far it's been hard to pick.

Great experience. Only stayed for a single day/night in the middle of a trip, wish we had longer. Our site was near a pond and the lake which made it very picturesque and vibrant with the sounds of nature. Other campers were quite and respectful.

Camp ground's are over run with weeds obviously the company that has contract to mow are lazy or just don't know what they are doing cause it's in the worst shape i've ever seen!!! couldn't hardly find the fire ring because there was so many weeds around it.

Love coming to Mound Valley. Been coming here for over 35 years. It's only two hours away from our home. Sites are nicely spaced apart with plenty of trees for privacy. Easy access to the lake so we can park our boat along the shore. Good fishing from the shore or from the boat. Nice well maintained boat ramps with wind protection provided by the dam. Exceptional sandy swim beach. Nice paved roads throughout.

Enjoyed family time celebrating husband's and son's birthday. Just wish Mound Valley side had sewer hookups.
@GregP7824948 · Camped on Oct 11, 2024 at Campsite #49
Good site, but very uneven. Great view of lake challenged by loud and vulgar people screaming and playing music every evening. Trail down to water convenient, but too steep for large kayak to easily traverse. Area is beautiful.
@JudyS8825940 · Camped on Sep 29, 2024 at Campsite #33
Clean bathrooms and camping sites. Friendly camp host. Beautiful lake views.

We love it here! Home away from home.

Not a lot of space for tents but nice location.
@DanaD1D5507C76 · Camped on Sep 1, 2024 at Campsite #G2
The location was great, everything was wonderful ! Will definitely choose this location again!
@KimN6413755 · Camped on Aug 23, 2024 at Campsite #34
Access to the water is great
@KathyH9289839 · Camped on Aug 7, 2024 at Campsite #40
Just stayed for one night in the middle of the week. I was the only one in the loop. It was relaxing.
@scottb3088469 · Camped on Jun 23, 2024 at Campsite #35
This particular weekend was hotter than the surface of the sun. The camp ground was basically full, there were a ton of boats on the water in the nearby cove. But site was clean and level, the water and electric worked fine, the bath houses were clean. We stayed two nights.

I love Mound Valley and camp there every year for my birthday week with a large group of my friends and family. The camp hosts have always been helpful and friendly. The previous 10 years we have stayed in the cul-de sac with sites 52-56. This year we stayed in sites 76-85. We had issues with the electricity in sites 79-81. The breaker is not large enough to run all three sites when the temperature is high. The breakers kept tripping. The hosts had to come out and turn them back on about every 45 minutes. We had dogs and napping kids in the campers which could have been deadly had we not been right at the campground the whole time and realized the power had went out. Hopefully they get the issue fixed before we return. If not we may be forced to find somewhere else to go.

Beautiful scenery and very clean
@SteveS6334481 · Camped on Apr 8, 2024 at Campsite #61
The place and campgounds were great but your website was very difficult to use for the reservation
@TimM9090024 · Camped on Apr 1, 2024 at Campsite #33
Always a great time here. Opening day the RR in first loop had no TP and RR not cleaned, but rest of week they were regularly serviced.

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!!!
