Maria Paull: I wasn't able to walk on the trail but it seems like a beautiful place for a hike. My kids enjoyed running around.

Jay Gee: I just went fishing last spring it was amazing

Sara Martineau: Best staff and programs

Krissy Proto: We just spent our entire summer at Wilderness Lake and loved every minute of it! Everyone there made us so comfortable and welcomed. The owners Doug and Holli were so helpful and friendly, the staff including Josh and Teddy were just awesome as well. A fun family vibe, clean and beautiful grounds!! We’ll be back!

Patrick McCarel: Staff.... especially Josh, was great! Campground was nice, tent sites are large and secluded. Lots of firewood for your money. Only one problem, the shower house is so far away from the tent sites we had to drive there. That's the only reason for four instead of five stars. Nice place to stay.

John Richard: It definitely is my home away from home! I’ve been coming here for years. My wife and I just absolutely love the area. And the camp store is very well stocked also!!

Terrance Burroughs: Very peaceful atmosphere, friendly staff, easy access to amenities, plenty of space

Beverly Danser: Awesome campsites surrounding a beautiful 30 acre spring fed lake!! Swimming, kayaking, canoeing and hiking all make a most enjoyable time!! Amazing gift shop and excellent customer service!! Also pet friendly!!

Connie Palagi: First camping trip in my pop up trailer was last week at Wilderness Lake Campground. When we checked in the owner had no record of my deposit/VENMO payment and asked for all 3 nights in payment. When I mentioned I paid the deposit via VENMO he said "I guess I'll have to take your word for it."As we were checking in we purchased 3 bundles of firewood, one for each night. We received no firewood.When I asked for my money back on day 3 he readily handed me a $20 and later that day someone brought wood to our site. Rain storm to follow.Speaking of sites.....when we arrived we were shown to the most unlikely site for a pop up (reserved 2 months ago) which was slanted and ridiculous to back down into (in between two pine trees next to the lake drop off and a stone wall on the other side)He couldn't really help us and kept insisting we face the other way and keep our SUV connected the entire time. This would not have allowed us to leave the campground for 4 days and also face a stone wall/directly into the neighbors screenhouse.We sent him on his way and had to work it out ourselves, backing in and out and up and down for about 30 minutes until we got a little slanted spot to face the LAKE.When he returned later he asked "How did you get in there????"The lake is small but nice, there are some free kayaks and canoes and there are three showers and bathrooms in the Ladies Room.The sites in general seem to cater to just big RVs parked there forever.Nothing seems to be marked except SITE 16 which is where he crammed us.We met some nice neighbors and the latest gal pulling in was also hassled about where her spot was and where she should be set up. Something that could be solved with a SHARPIE.We couldn't get any ice because the camp store was closed most days.People trying to check in or pay for wood, etc. were SOL most of the time we were there.We had fun on our own but will not be returning and just for the record I am not normally a complainer or a wimpy camper. :)

Rizan Rafi: Excellent place for a short camping trip. Enjoyable experience. Especially the campsite we got - close to lake - with electric & water. Kids had a great time!

Danielle Ceder: We were planning on staying here for a week but we really liked this place so we ended up staying for a month and a half. We stayed for two weeks at the front, by the water and the park and there was a great Internet connection and then we moved further in and it was really peaceful and beautiful, we had our own private spot in nature. The Lake is amazing and usually warm to swim in, we’ve been traveling the East Coast and this is one of the nicest places we were at

Emilee Boulay: Had a great experience! This was our second time going and we had a wonderful time, enjoyed a nice walk around the lake, the kids loved the ice cream in the store, the lake was a blast and ended the nights with a nice fire and s’mores

Danielle Joorabchi: What an amazing place ! It’s our 1st time here and what a incredible staff! Josh meet us at the front and helped us into the site . He delivered wood for us and was so kind .The place is so clean , the beach area was great for the kids . The sites are so close together, but everyone was super friendly.Definitely coming back !

Bautista Carrillo: Everything was great, we are from Argentina and it was our first time doing a trip in an RV and coming to Wilderness Lake was the best part of our trip. The attention to detail from Josh was just amazing and the place itself is very beautiful. Even though they don’t have black water sewage on every site, they do have a main one were you can go and clean your tanks, but really the whole experience made up for it.

Donna Coko: A GEM! We had the best time... so good I didn't want to leave! Doug and Hollie (who we now consider friends), their kids and Josh, went above and beyond to make sure we and the other guests were comfortable and had a good time. Saturday night's beach party was a blast and we met so many nice people! We had a perfectly secluded tent site as we requested. The beach was beautiful and the entire place very well kept. Cannot WAIT! to go back.

Amy Gustavson: Wilderness seems like the ideal place for a seasonal spot. Transient campers, not so much. Although the online campground map shows many spaces, overnight campers were mushed into one tight area. Initially we were given a site that I had specifically requested to NOT be in....so maybe that's why we were given the tight site. The gentleman said he would look for another site, and to just pull into that spot for now but he never came back. so we hooked up. water pressure and quality was good and electric power consistent and strong. Lots of small debris around, candy wrappers, caps, cigarette butts so it must have been a busy time for them.When we checked in we were not given a map, so did not know of other options..and again were questioned about paying. I had sent a check 3 weeks prior..and the check had been cashed. we rec;d calls and questions requesting payment. I guess the system needs a bit of updating.The campground was quiet and the lakefront looked inviting. There was a nice patio behind the rec? event? hall...which looked like it could be a fun spot. There was a playground and horse shoe area...The dump station an easy drive up, but a very tight circle pulling away...We selected this campground in hopes of finding a place we could escape to every now and then..... but I think this would be best suited for the seasonal camper.

Joe F: Josh was super helpful after a mix-up with our campsite by trying to work with us and get us a site that would work for our needs. Most sights were a little tight together but did have a treeline between them. The campground itself is very large with winding trails to get to the different sights. If you have to pee in the middle of the night and don't want to use a porta potty you may have to drive back to the main office to use the only bathroom. This bathroom has running water and showers. The porta potty that was close to our sight was not emptied and was probably the worst part of our stay. On a positive note, the pond on the property was very nice and the campground provides free use of several canoes they own. All in all it was a good time!

O. Keith Hughes: It's under new ownership and still has the amenities we liked before as well as some new offerings.

Amanda Vega: this place saved my weekend and gave my family and i a wonderful experience the owner and everyone who worked camped and lived there were all very nice people! my family and i felt very welcomed and had a great stay with plenty of activities and a clean sight to enjoy it all . the bathrooms were well stocked with toilet paper and comfortable showers with a nice big mirror and there store offers free coffee . the owner has a friendly dog and made me feel very comfortable in coming back definitely will be coming back

Christine Braun: Wilderness lake is a beautiful campground.. Doug and his family are awesome people. Such a great family. We were visiting and we were very welcomed . Lots of activities are planned and the campers there are all friendly and kind

Aaron Jones: Awesome tent sites and a lot of RV spots. Quiet. Gorgeous views of the lake

Yennifer G. Ballesteros: Amazing!!

Victoria Carrozza: The manager was extremely rude. We were unable to pull enough electricity on a 50 amp site to run one a/c and the microwave. We asked permission to run our generator to cook dinner. We had just arrived at 6 pm. 90°.We were told that if we wanted a refund, we had 15 minutes to get off the property! This was July 4th weekend! Avoid this place on holidays. Our windows faced directly into a cottage that was only feet away and occupied.Noteworthy details: Not big-rig friendly. Not well kept. Pool looked greenish.
