    Quiet and private. Recommend replacing water hose at dump station. It’s broken.

    Overall very good trip, my only complaint is the water system seems to need some work due to water being muddy or maybe rusty.

    Wonderful stay here. It still has the COE structure and sites in place and they are mostly private and almost all are on the water. Many of the sites are pull through and all are maintained well. The bathrooms can get out of hand depending on the guests that are staying, but the staff clean them up expediently. I found a few other sites that I would like better, but we certainly enjoyed our time and we will return! Thank you! BG

    Hill was too steep to give access to lake. Site was beautiful and clean.

    Hester's Bottoms is reasonably priced with spacious wooded sites creating natural shade and privacy. The WIFI was good and the park is clean. We enjoyed being in an environment surrounded by unpopulated nature, it was quiet and very relaxing.

    Unable to have campfires due to drought and no fishing with water levels so low. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay but had issues with our A/C

    Always clean and quiet camping! Never disappoints! Just love how dark it gets allowing the nighttime sky to show itself.

    Wonderful campsites bordered by water and trees, relaxed management style makes for super relaxing place to go. Have to use central dump station (not at individual campsites) but that was just fine. We will define be back here.

    Our wooded site was quite large with a wonderful view of the water. The campsite was quiet and very clean. The staff was very friendly. We enjoyed our weekend and will be visiting again!
