Beautiful campground, maintained very well, shady with lots of room for each site. $15 with the Beautiful America pass.

This was a great two day camping site on our way to the Dakota's to see 3 National Parks. Park was clean, full hook ups. Nice views.

Methodist Cove is a great campground. We usually stay only one night as we are en route to a destination, but occasionally we will make the time to stay two nights as it is one of our favorite campgrounds.

ME AND MY WIFE STAYED ON SITE 84 AND WAS NOT OUR FAVORITE SITE BUT FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR WAS OK. WILL NOT STAY AT THIS SITE AGAIN, WILL WAIT FOR A DIFFERENT SITE, TOO CLOSE TO THE SIDEWALK THAT GOES TO SHOWER HOUSE AND ALSO HARD TO BACK IN A BIGGER FTH WHEEL (43') CAMPER. WE LOVE METHODIST COVE CAMPGROUND! JUST NOT THIS SITE. GREAT CAMP HOSTS AND ALOT OF GREAT VOLUNTEERS AND WORKERS THAT TAKE CARE OF METHODIST COVE KEEPING IT ONE OF OUR FAVORITE PLACES TO COME! ALSO WE LOVE THE CEMENT TRAIL THAT GOES INTO ALMA AND ALSO THE NICE LAKE FOR GREAT FISHING! SEE YOU IN THE SPRING!

The shower house was not as clean as it always has been in the past.
@ThomasG8527799 · Camped on Sep 22, 2025 at Campsite #42
It was 4 days of low wind and nice temperatures, a great chance to get away.

Great place to camp! Very well taken care of and they were planting new trees while we were there. Bathrooms, showers and laundry facilities were very clean. Nice view of the water and roads were great for walking. No OTA channels but Wi-Fi and Starlink were perfect.

Great camp ground. Rolled in just before a big storm hit. Camp host came right by and clued me into where to go if the weather got serious. Wish I would have had more time here to use their paved bike path. Bathrooms were very clean and easily accessible.

@RichardB341941 · Camped on Sep 7, 2025 at Campsite #98

@NancyD82C02E16 · Camped on Sep 7, 2025 at Campsite #95
The park is beautiful and well maintained. We stayed one night on our way through Nebraska but I would have loved to stay longer.

very pretty campground...nice big trees
@DebiFB5587F9AC · Camped on Aug 28, 2025 at Campsite #94
We love staying at Methodist! Its always clean and welcoming. If we had 1 complaint it would be they need to mow the grass more. But we feel safe there and never worry about things getting stolen and we know the kids can run around and play when its dark and theyre safe.
@AnneZF185DC9B3 · Camped on Aug 28, 2025 at Campsite #114
We love Methodist Cove! It's one of our "go to" parks when we head to Texas to visit family (saves the headache of trying to maneuver Denver traffic!)!

Had to make my reservations on line - made them for one night Thursday and checking out Friday. Found out that check out is at 6 PM luckily when we arrived at noon - no one was camped in our spot - otherwise we would have had to wait until 6PM and we left at 9AM the following morning. To insure the campsite would be available we would have had to pay for an additional day. Not impressed with the current system.

Methodist Cove is a lovely campground. We only stayed one night but enjoyed our water site.
@GwenG98FBC829F · Camped on Aug 19, 2025 at Campsite #58
Awesome stay.
@BrandiS1434142 · Camped on Aug 15, 2025 at Campsite #13
Not giving a 1 star because the bathrooms near my spot were clean and in good shape. I wanted to give a 1 star though because it is upsetting that I was required to purchase a primitive camping spot for two nights even though I was only staying for one night. Definitely not worth it considering I couldnt even drop my boat in the water at this campground. Very disappointing.
@VickieK1146085 · Camped on Aug 14, 2025 at Campsite #86
Awesome camping area!

Methodist Cove is a very nice campground, we always have a good experience there. The sites are far enough apart to allow you "your space" not like some campgrounds.

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.
