We have been going to Bandits Roost for many years and enjoy the campground and lake. It is sad to see that no improvements have been made to the campground in many years. The roads are in need of repair; the campsites are in need of gravel and wood repairs at the steps and border. The restrooms are severely outdated and need upgrades. The front security arm has been broken for months, and we were told lacked funds for repair. Why are the campground fees being diverted to other uses instead of upgrading the campground?

Being close to the water is what makes this campground. Plus, it's easy to get to and you're close to anything you might need. Be prepared for a 2-level site. There are several.

We love Bandit's Roost. It's truly camping. The sites are great with plenty of room and everything you need. There's a firepit, picnic table, a prep table and hooks to keep your garbage up and away from creatures. This is our go to place to stay.

We enjoyed our stay at Bandits Roost site 97B. The site had lots of space and was not too close to other sites. It was a very shaded lot with a lake view through the woods. The campground was very quiet. We will stay at Bandits Roost again.

Nice park, nice people. The gate attendent called us a 11:00 a.m. to tell us our site was available. I have not had that happen in 14 years of RVing. That was very nice. Site 97 was nice and long so we could have the RV, truck and boat.

Everything was really nice. The site was good and the leaves were starting to turn. The staff friendly. Very restful stay. We have reservations again in April 2022.
