As our daughter was in site 46 and we were in site 45, there was quite a bit of distance between the two sites. In looking at the map when we chose these spots, we thought they would be closer together, but we had to walk up a bank to get to her site. This made it difficult considering we were cooking our meals together and we were the only ones with the cooking stove, but she had the majority of the food. Access to the lake was impossible with a pontoon from this site due to the fact that the lake was lower so we couldn't get our pontoon for fear of either getting stuck in the mud or pulling mud into the motor. The kids that were at various sites in the campground began to ride their bikes and scream around 7:30 a.m. on Saturday morning which made for sleeping in impossible. Some of the campers came over in front of our campsite to play some kind of golf because their campsite was too close to the water, which made it impossible for us to enjoy our view for listening to them critiquing their golf game. Other than that, it was our first visit to Jack Rabbit Campground but really thought it would be less busy due to the time we were there. The supervisor was extremely nice however when we asked if there were any other sites we could move to due to the distance apart from our daughter. Having the bath house close by was a great help, however, when the kids were riding their bikes they were not paying attention to people crossing the road and one just about hit me as I was trying to get across the road before he got too close.

This campground has become our happy place. It is family friendly and we always have a great time. We came once a month for 5 months, twice in one of those months! Only complaint would be the first B loop bathroom was reliably filthy and without toilet paper on every single visit. The sink did not work in one of the stalls 2 weeks ago and the shower was essentially useless. It was strange bc none of the other campground bathrooms were as bad as that one at any point. Make sure you always have a spare roll with you:)
