Oak Park

One of our fav camps. Since we’re weekday campers it’s perfect. About 100 spots. Quiet, clean, very picturesque!

We camp here at least once a year. There are alot of bugs and we saw a scorpion today but i would still come here. Bugs and all

One of our favorite camping gems. Peaceful & quiet in a beautiful natural environment that includes a small fishing lake. Friendly camp hosts. Clean facilities. Small swim beach & nice playground. Great sites, both on & off the water, that are big. Most have plenty of trees. We love relaxing on weekend getaways & holidays.

Nice park. Wish I could say more but the weather refused to let us fully enjoy it. 😏 wind & rain.

Well, this certainly isn’t my favorite one of the handful of Corps campgrounds I have visited recently. 🫤 This one is quite depressing 😟 The beaches, docks, boat ramp, one of the bathrooms. All of the beachfront picnic tables are all closed off due to flooding.

There was a lot of trash around this park. I noticed they have three host spots so I assume that’s six people🤔 yet, there is no golf cart, and the day-use section is closed! 🚧 There is no re-entry keypad so you must be back by 10:00 p.m. One of the hosts sits in the entry building 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. everyday 🤷🏻‍♂️

I picked up an entire bag of trash.🗑️ Most of the usual beer bottle caps, twist ties, cigarette butts of course 😣cable wraps, bits and pieces of other stuff that the lawn mower obviously ran over.😟
And a lot of plastic bags from the grocery store. 🫣
I understand much of the trash could be from flooding and wind but I would expect it to be picked up after looking at it for two or three days 🫣

I saw a plastic bottle all week outside the only available bathroom (at the time) in the lower numbered section.

There’s hardly any campers here at all, maybe a dozen total, and yet the site they gave me is certainly not a choice one on the water. 🤷🏻‍♂️
The lower number sites are very difficult to back into because they’re very steep. You can see the marks where many people have scraped up the back of their RVs 🫣😬

The bugs are pretty horrendous at night. The flies are so obnoxious they’ll just carry you away or eat your food while you’re trying to eat it!
Then there’s millions of these tiny gnat-like things that land on anything that’s light colored. The roof is caked with them. And as soon as you open the door to the camper they’re on the inside of the door and all over the ceiling 🫣
And so many spiders 🕷️
They work their way in everywhere!

I see the locals seem to know how to handle it. 🤨
They arrive early in the day and immediately get to work. They sweep, vacuum, blow, wash, mow, spray, carpet, tablecloth and basically terraform the environment for their stay. 🫢
