The stay was great but it could have been better if the restrooms and showers in E section would have been open. Hope you can fix them this winter.
@SammyT21E4DD98 · Camped on Oct 16, 2025 at Campsite #E89
The hosts were very polite and a very clean camp ground.

Had easy access to the water for fishing or canoeing sites were nice in size equipped with a picnic table and a fire pit only thing missing was the top to the cooking table sites were far enough apart that you had privacy but close enough that you could interact with your neighbors

Great Place for Family Camping!
@AshleyM6190418 · Camped on Oct 10, 2025 at Campsite #E89
Great campsites right on the beautiful lake. Sunset view was unbelievable! We had quite a hike to the bathrooms because of the closed bath house. But other than that it was amazing. We had a great time, will come again!
@RayR3672529 · Camped on Oct 9, 2025 at Campsite #E74
Other than low water level and the bath house not working it was a great experience, I will be back soon.

We stayed on site F110 right on the water. Back in site with electric and water. Beautiful view of the lake and access to the lake from the site. Very clean and organized campground from the bath house to the dump station. We are fairly new campers and we made a new camper mistake when we were leaving at the end of our stay, we forgot to bring in our awning and as we drove away from our site our awning hit a tree and was destroyed. Not knowing what to do I backed into an adjacent site and sat there dumbfounded that we made that mistake. I knew I couldnt drive with awning hanging half off the Rv so I pulled out my small tool box and realized we were SOL..almost immediately other campers came by and asked if I needed help and as embarrassed as I was I knew I needed help. They all quickly jumped in bringing tools and gear and started to remove the awning from my rv as I tried to help but realized this was way outside my lane and I needed to get out of the way and let them do what they do. I cant thank those 3 gentlemen enough and I cant remember there names and Im sorry, but you know who you are and I am forever greatfull and only hope I can someday return the favor or pay it forward in some way to another camper. I would also like to thank the other campers who came by offering there time and assistance also. That day and that fellow camper kindness that was shown to us has changed us for the better. We have been camping for about 4 months and mostly kept to ourselves at the campgrounds but that day has changed that, thank you axtel campers , we feel very humbled. The Harpers

Bardstown My Old Kentucky Home is a must see. The site numbers were difficult to find. They are on the hook posts.
@DannyE79036DCC · Camped on Sep 28, 2025 at Campsite #A18
O on of our favorite campgrounds. After camping there for almost 20 years this was our first time in site #18 and it was perfect. This facility is always clean and well maintained. The host is extremely friendly. Continues to be one of our favorite get-away area.

Beautiful place Great people Great produce at Martins produce down the road.
@RandyTB5C7E06E · Camped on Sep 26, 2025 at Campsite #E105
E loop bathhouse has been closed all season, seems like a long time to be closed.
@Sonnyn1E453F11 · Camped on Sep 26, 2025 at Campsite #E78
Vicki is amazing and E wash house/restroom has been out of service whole season?
@PATRICIAF93069 · Camped on Sep 25, 2025 at Campsite #A4
I found Axtel to be a very pretty campground. Most sites were roomy with lake views. The only negative is sites at the front of the campground hear a lot of road noise and there is also a water filter system that is very noisy and runs most of the time affecting those sites.
@PatL8481245 · Camped on Sep 21, 2025 at Campsite #G129
Axtle is a beautiful place to camp. The host is always very helpful. She is very friendly and will stop and talk to you when making her rounds. We always make a trip to Martins Farm Stand when there.
@MarkS8760847 · Camped on Sep 19, 2025 at Campsite #F106
Just wish that you wouldnt let people reserve just a Saturday! That messes the hole weekend up !
@AlA4A2BBAAA87F · Camped on Sep 18, 2025 at Campsite #E97
Park was very family friendly, clean, and quiet.
@SharonRB1E4152 · Camped on Sep 14, 2025 at Campsite #E80
The only thing that could have made our trip better would have been if the shower house had open in our section and if the fish had of been biting
@MikeB2167342 · Camped on Sep 14, 2025 at Campsite #F116
Axtel camping is always a fun experience.

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.
