We just wrapped up a wonderful two-night stay at Summersville Lake Campground, and we can't recommend it enough! We splurged on a premium spot, and the view was absolutely wonderful, offering breathtaking scenery that made our mornings and evenings truly special. From the moment we arrived, the owners were extremely nice and helpful, making us feel right at home. The facilities are great, clean, well-maintained, and everything you need for a comfortable camping experience. One of the highlights of our trip was renting a pontoon boat from the campground for a day on Summersville Lake. It was fantastic! The rental process was seamless, and the owners were extremely helpful every step of the way, ensuring we had everything we needed for a fun and safe day on the water. We're already planning our return trip! Summersville Lake Campground offers the perfect blend of natural beauty, excellent amenities, and top-notch service. Whether you're looking to relax by the lake or enjoy some water activities, this campground is an absolute gem.
