Never saw anyone working at the check in booth during our 3 day stay. Our site was level, plenty of shade and close to the shower house, which was always very clean. Used the laundry room during out stay and didn't have any issues. The water level of the lake is very low so we were limited with no water recreation. Boat rentals were not available due to water levels. Very scenic area and explored small town of Alma for supplies and groceries. Local grocery store had everything we needed. Small prairie dog area outside of campground near the dam was entertaining to watch.

Beautiful park on the St. Lawrence River. Lots of nice walks through along the rocky shoreline. Conveniently located and lots of options for accommodation.

Our annual father's day get together with friends from our college days was as usual a very relaxing enjoyable time. We have been camping at Hunter's Cove for more years than I can count and it is the one I consider the best that's available. The only downside to it is the unavailability of internet access, I would gladly pay a little more if this was an amenity offered.

I recommend dredging Hunters Cove so we can use the boat dock

Hunters Cove is nice, but there is no boat dock. They have a nice playground for little kids. I wish the Harlan County lake had a nice swimming area. The north side is muddy with weeds, the south side beach is doable, but they both need sand brought in.

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.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
