Not even close to level. Not the 1st COE campground I've been to that has this same problem. Come on COE, my kindergarter could do better than this.You only have to make level 1 time.Otherwise evey occupant has to do it each time.And we let them build dams?

This Corp of Engineers campground is in a beautiful location. Our site was clean with views of the lake. There were only a hnadful of other campers in the campground so it felt uncrowded and quiet. The sites are reservable. We had electric,water, picnic table and fire ring on site. Vault toilets were clean and stink free. No showers. Playground present. This campground is a great value and even more so when we used our Senior Lifetime National Park Pass for a discount.

Great long spots, nice views, super nice staff. We had to take site 6 instead of what we originally booked (site 22). Do not book 22, assuming it is great because ids 80 long. You have to nearly back up u-turn into it, the road isnt wide, and its a deep ditch on the side where youd use (drive in grass) to accommodate backing if you are big. A disaster waiting to happen.

Spotless clean bathrooms! Even the vault toilets were clean and smelled good.

We enjoyed our stay there. For whatever reason, we had no cel service. As long as its reasonably cool our spot as good. It will be several years before the trees are grown enough to provide decent shade.

No Service

Beautiful campground. We were parked right beside the lake! Only noise at night were the coyotes... had some trouble finding the campground. It is a Corp of Engineers campground and once we found their office and got a map we were quickly there.

@MichaelM865688 · Camped on Sep 17, 2025 at Campsite #6

Beautiful weather, campground nearly empty for the 6 days we spent at Tuttle Creek Cove. This campground is close enough to Manhattan to eat out or run an errand but feels remote. Only negative was poor cell reception.

@TerriN8830276 · Camped on Aug 14, 2025 at Campsite #9

Both times we camped there the sites were not clean. Never had anyone check us in. Unusual for a COE campground. Not much to do there unless you boat or fish.

@RobertED447605 · Camped on Aug 7, 2025 at Campsite #22

Mike and Emily are great hosts and very helpful around the park!Very willing to help out with showing me how to change reservations to another spot on the app. Great hosts!

Had a beautiful full view of the lake, park was very clean and well kept. Quiet, reasonable rate, especially with the life time senior pass. Definitely on my favorite list.

Excellent

@LanceL19154D24 · Camped on Jul 13, 2025 at Campsite #3

Quiet and cozy campground nessled on a lake. of the 33 slip loop I was in, there was 6 people there. Gated entrance provided safety and easy sewage dump pull of leaving the area was convenient.

Excellent

@RodneyF6954380 · Camped on Jul 11, 2025 at Campsite #22

Tuttle Creek Cove campground is an amazingly well planned and laid out property. The sites are beautifully landscaped and well maintained. We would definitely recommend a stop here if you are in the area.

@TinaH2927752 · Camped on Jun 30, 2025 at Campsite #9

Well designed and clean. I had a site with a great view of the lake.

@ShaneS5435560 · Camped on Jun 29, 2025 at Campsite #10

Campground is clean and tidy. Great sites with beautiful views. The other places we stay have a swim beach very close and this one doesnt. Also the sites could be a little better leveled out so we didnt have to use so many leveling blocks on one side of the rv. Other than those 2 things, its a great place.

Some Coverage

Nice shade, spacious area and clean. Boat ramps need some attention badly!

Excellent

@SteveD9647307 · Camped on Jun 5, 2025 at Campsite #24

Site provided a very Scenic Overlook of the lake itself.

@MichelleG91209 · Camped on Jun 3, 2025 at Campsite #22

Tuttle Creek was our first stop in a new RV. The layout of the campsites made it easy to find and back in no problem. Most spaces have a view of the lake. The upper level has a play ground for elementary age kids. We will definitely go back!

@LeannS63A4661B · Camped on May 30, 2025 at Campsite #26

Park was well maintained and bathroom facilities were clean.

Excellent

@KellyBFC552CDB · Camped on May 30, 2025 at Campsite #29

We enjoyed our stay at this site. The sites are huge and well kept. The grass was freshly mowed. Not a lot of ticks. It was a quiet area with larger expensive campers. Things to note: While this site is lakefront, theres no access to the water from it as the lake is about 50 feet down a cliff. Additionally, you cant see the water when youre sitting at your campsite. Theres also no dumpsters near the campsites. The closest is a the boat dock.

Excellent

we had van emergency and had to leave early but we will be back soon

@ChazInSoCal - CA

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.

@Wondering - Oregon

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.
