August 19 Best Campground Ever! by Will

I am 46 years old and have been coming to Elijah Clark my entire life. I now have older teenagers that my wife and I bring at least twice a year. It is a very special place for me and my family. We used to stay in the cabins a lot because they are amazing but we now stay in our pop-up. You cannot beat the campsites as far as size and cleanliness..and views of the lake. The Park Ranger and staff are extremely helpful and nice. LOVE THIS PLACE!!!

July 27 One of our favorite places to camp by Linda Williams

We have camped at Elijah Clark Park several times, and find it to be a great place for the kids to fish and swim. The campsites are very clean and accessible to our 35ft motorhome. We plan to camp there many more times. Looking forward to camping there this fall.
