Great place this was our 2nd time there this year. We just starting camping this year. The archery range is a fantastic activity. Really enjoyed the 3D rangeThe restrooms could use a little touch. No hooks to hang towels and clothes but other than that great place will definitely be back

The majority of the sites in our loop were very sloped. It made it quite difficult to level front to back. We did not unhook because our site was so bad we were afraid of rolling backwards even with chocks behind the tires! This should be stated in the site description. We will not return.

Camp hosts were friendly and helpful. Shower houses were clean. Sites were large and set up well. We will definitely be back!

We had a wonderful time camping at the Frank Russell campground. The weather cooperated, and my girlfriend didn't fill the tanks (black and grey), and actually conserved the fresh water, she's learning, LOL. The campground is very nice, well maintained and clean. The site are large and private, although many of the sites have different levels, separated by railroad ties, and the sites are quite a distance from the lake (about 700 feet). It's hard to get a clear view of the lake through the all trees, and getting to the lake to fish can be perilous, the approach to the lake is very steep and rocky in most places. Once we were able to find a smooth enough spot we did catch a lot of nice fish, crappies and white bass, even a few small stripers, with night crawlers. The campground is kind of desolate, the nearest grocery store is a half hours drive away down a few dusty (gravel) roads. It would be wise to stock up well before getting to the campground.
