GenieSummary

What others are saying about this campground
Chain O Lakes State Park is a mixed bag. While some visitors found their campsites to be cozy and well-separated, others found the lots to be uneven and too close to each other. Those who stayed in Fox Den found it to be better than Honeysuckle Hollow, with more space between sites and a better ambiance. However, some visitors noted that the bathhouses were dated and could use a renovation, while others felt that they were usable. The hiking trails were plentiful, but some were marked with old markers, resulting in confusion and frustration. The parks wildlife is impressive, and there are plenty of opportunities to spot interesting creatures. The lake is a popular destination, attracting boaters and fishers alike, and the walking paths are well-maintained. However, some visitors were bothered by trash and felled trees on the hiking trails. The park offers 2 dump stations, and the newer one is much larger and easy to use, and the park also has decent water quality, although some visitors noted that the water spigots in the campground loops are slow. On the whole, opinions varied on whether the park was worth a visit, with some visitors loving it and others thinking it could use some improvements.
