Stay

It was one of the cleanest and well-kept campsites that we have experienced in all the years we have been camping and using the cabins

Fall Camping

Place was beautiful as usual. When the weekend arrived they closed over half of the rest rooms. I suspect staff for cleaning was short handed. This not good if not advertised. People taking showers and so rest rooms not available. This not good for elderly people that cannot wait that long. I suggest if half to do this to ask people to forgo showers as can not hold up restrooms that long.

Farm Island group camping

Farm Island is one of our group's favorite camping destinations. The view is fabulous and it's very quiet and relaxing there. The state capitol grounds are a must see while in the area.

Nobody to help

The code for the cabin door didn’t work. No one at the booth. No one answering the listed phone number, no emergency number, no camp host.

Website Bad

The website is difficult to use. We finally reserved a site and received a confirmation number. Some one was finally in the booth. I asked for a guest tag for our tow vehicle and was told I did not have a reservation. How can you get a confirmation number and no reservation?

Less dogs

We stayed in cabin 2-the outlets could probably be replaced as they didn’t hold chargers etc in the slots. We also had a camper parked 2 spots down from us that had 4 dogs that parked all the time. They also let one run without a lease.

Need to spray

There really needs to be some sort of spraying done for mosquitos, at least during holiday weekends. It is impossible to use enough bug spray to sit outside 10 minutes after dark. The camping pads have not had any gravel added to them in what seems like years. The fire pits could use a little help with rock or gravel for when it rains, it is like a lake around most of them.

Love those Cabins

Love the Cabins. Clean, comfortable, and spacious for a weekend visit. Fish right outside the cabin on the beach or watch poles from the deck, just a short 20 yds away. Fire pit right there if you desire, picnic table on the deck. We prefer the Cabins as we are retired and harder to get off the ground or air matress. They are dry in wet weather, dont have to set up a tent or pack in windy conditions. Less gear to pack when in the cabins.

Farm Island

Nice park. The road after you pass the registration area needs to be redone. It is very bumpy!

Rough roads

I am just surprised that all the state parks increased there rate by 50% but they don't put any money back into the park. The road going into farm island is an absolute joke! You might just as well put speed bumps all the way up and down the entrance road!

Family camping

We rented two cabins and two campsites. Were happy with all. Bath houses are very modern, nice and clean. Love the family bathroom option with a sink and shower of your own. Quiet. Safe. Very close to the nice beach area. We rented paddle boards and kayaks. Lots of room to ride bikes. Kids love it!

Camp was very clean, newer facilities, not crowded. Wished Ice was available on site, but Pierre was very close.

License Plates for registration

License plates for registered campers might need to be added and staff drive through confirmation. Cabin was full of bugs, alive and dead, somewhat expected but this one had a lot of ladybug looking ones and flies.
