Stayed here for 1 night while camping with friends. The lake is excellent for swimming - it is quite small. A competent swimmer can easily get across the lake. They had good activity choices, including a tennis court. Campsites were clearly laid out, with water and/or power. Plenty of trees for shade. Bathroom and showers were clean every time I... More

We have been coming here for 4 years now. This year was one of the best yet. They have substantially upgraded the campgrounds with more to come next year. The bathrooms were generally kept clean most of the time. Staff were always friendly and the beach was clean. The lake is great for swimming and the kids can also fish... More

Stayed here peak season so it was pretty full and like many private campgrounds, the sites are quite close together. It's family oriented so that and the proximity of sites means that you might get some some disturbance (over hearing loud conversations, kids playing etc rather than yahoos getting loaded or loud music). That said, it's clean, well maintained and... More

This is a campground my sister has camped in for many years. She mentioned that the resort was in need of some upgrading and proper management. We were very surprised when we arrived to find the campground very clean and there were a lot of new features - new rock bed sites, new playground, new fences. The washrooms were very... More

I admit right off the start that I am not a camper but this summer my family wanted to give it a try so I agreed. Friends of ours we're going to Gallagher's for the weekend and we thought it would be a good idea to join them. It was a great idea. The campground is well looked after, it... More

We stayed here for 4 nights and it was great. The sand beach area is small and full of kids but you can drift out and enjoy some quiet on a floatie. Perfect for kayaking. Shallow rocks you can anchor to and jump off into the water. Good for kids. Clean. We stayed in sites 5&6 which were very big... More

We are thrilled that the management from last year has been replaced with people who seem much more competent and we look forward to a well-run campground once again. The lake is deep and the perfect size for swimming and non-motorized activities, the beach is typically full, but not crowded, the sites are treed and if you choose your site... More
