Badin Lake is a great place for fishing, hiking, canoeing, camping, and taking a relaxing weekend trip with the family. The bathrooms are pretty clean but there are not enough shelves to place your clothes in the shower stall so make sure to bring waterproof bags. This is a great place to visit when you have free time and I would come back for an 8th time but watch out for racoons and stray cats!

Nice and simple campground, a bit outdated...

I really enjoy this site. This is the third time I have stayed at the bladen lake area. I will be back next year.

Site 18 is a short walk to the 5-mile Badin Lake trail and entry to the lake on your kayak or tube. The fire pit is very large and has a grate one could use to grill on. There is a separate grill one could use with charcoal briquettes. The tent space is very large, ample parking for multiple cars. The cardinals love the site - I had many visiting throughout my stay. I bought wood down the road at a gas station. Overall, an excellent place to camp!

Great campground! The lake being so nearby was wonderful, and the host came around to introduce himself. Trails were excellently maintained.

Great camp site! Our site (#18) has direct lake access but it wasn’t flat like a beach to get into and it off the water. Some sites had that. Obviously not something the campgrounds can influence. Nice people. No one was loud late at night. Restrooms were fine, not the cleanest but still just fine for camping. We’ll definitely need back and try to book a spot with better water access and hopefully we won’t get a surprise rain shower!

We arrived on Thursday afternoon, and loved it immediately. It was so peaceful and beautiful. All the facilities were well maintained. The bathrooms were clean, as were the showers (mostly clean). Our site (#18) was nice. It was big enough for 2 tents and all of our gear. It also had a direct access to the lake. However, it was on a cove, so fishing wasn't the easiest, but not terrible.
The road is gravel, so when traffic picked up on Friday, we literally ate and breathed dust and dirt for hours. There's also no enforcement of or adherence to quiet hours. The place was a madhouse Friday night, including bass-thumping music coming from a car 2 sites over, where its owner was just setting up camp at 11pm. Additionally, there were screaming kids and barking dogs that carried on all night. There is no gate to this campground, so people are free to come and go at any hour - and they DO. We will be sticking to weeknights in the future. The weekends are way too out of control.
The campsite was beautiful and clean. Make sure to take hand soap since there was none in the bathroom. I highly recommend going there to camp.
