Turkey Run Canoe & Camping — Reviews

Bathroom was to far from the cabin we stayed in. The cabin was clean and comfortable for me and my wife.

Had a great time quiet and peaceful even with Halloween activities

Beautiful campsite, the general store has real ice cream. Good ice cream. Nuff said. I gave it 4 instead of 5 because the bathroom didn't have any soap from about 6 am through when we got back from hiking. Also, be aware that while you will likely have great cell service (they have a tower out behind the shower/restrooms), you'll also have a cell tower blinking in the night sky, which did light up the tent a bit at night, even through the rain fly. If it had been a hot night and the fly was off, this would have driven me bananas.

One of our favorite campgrounds. Great hosts, the store there has all the essentials

We loved the camp ground! Very friendly people and so close to turkey run!

The deception when it comes to electricity is really upsetting. I arrived around 7:30pm to my spot and went to plug in to the 30amp when I noticed someone else was plugged into it. I went up to them and they said that when they checked in, they were told it was "first come first serve" with plug-ins but if I went to the desk, they would provide me with an adapter. I go to the camp store front desk and let them know that I was told I would be given an adapter to plug my camper in. She goes and grabs a 50 to 30 adapter and proceeds to charge me $30 for it. I was shocked. I was immediately told it was in the terms & conditions. And I asked where, the website? Because I read no such thing. I read contracts for a living. And I always read every campground rules because they vary from park to park. It NEVER stated that. I wanted to argue it but I figured I should double back and make sure I didn't skip it. So I paid for the adapter. Go back to my site and get set up so the kids could start cooking. Go back to read said terms & conditions. Nowhere. Not a single mention of this "first come first serve" anywhere. I looked through every form listed on the Campspot app and directly from their website. It doesn't say anything of the sort. Might not be a big deal to some, but it's misleading regardless. $30 is a lot of money. And I wasn't planning to buy an adapter. I have NEVER needed to use one. If I book a site for 30amp service, I expect 30amp service. That's it. The park wasn't busy when we came last year so it wasn't an issue. This year it was. The next day, our 2nd site became available and we set up our tent for when the others arrived. Went to plug in to THAT sites tower and the 20amp service wasn't even working. Tried everything. But I just had a feeling that if I were to go up to the store, they would SELL me a 30 to 20amp adapter and call it a day. Not at all worried about the costs adding up to others. They are just out here trying to make money on everything apparently. Thank goodness I had plenty of extension cords along with my friends to run it from my original tower over to her site right next to mine. My nephew fell on the porch and sliced his knew right open at close of the store. They immediately turned around to ask for gauze or something to find the door locked and the lights already shut off. It wasn't until about an hour after the fact that we were approached with an incident report. The metal casing around the beams sticks out and there was also a nail sticking far out as well. He landed perfect and cut his knee open DEEP. But I'm sure they would've tried to charge us for assisting him. Feel free to stay here if you are wanting a gamble on boondocking or paying to make electric service work somehow. After the deception and lack of caring, we won't be back.

Campsites were pretty small. The numbers on the map didn’t line up with the actual site numbers. We picked a specific site that would be easy to pull into due to our camper size, but because the site numbers weren’t the same as the map we were in a different spot that was incredibly hard to get into. Nice people

Great weather and good time

It was very nice!! My son had such a fun time camping in the tent and rafting at the river! Thank you

The campsite was nice and as described, but the bathroom was very primitive with little privacy. The men’s bathroom also was covered in pee and completely disgusting the 2 days we were there. It was nice to be so close to the state park tho, and the camp store was filled with all the necessities and ice cream you’d ever need with kind staff.

Everyone is so nice and helpful at Turkey Run!

More restrooms and showers in the primitive with electricity would be nice as there are only 3 showers and lots of camping areas. Also having a camping spot next to the dump station for all the campers by our tents when everyone was dumping on Sunday was horrific smelling every time a camper left. All in all nice, cute place for the weekend camping.

This is a great place to camp and stay at

Nice People, Nice Campground.
