Collins Lake Recreation Area in Stati Uniti

We arrived at noon and we’re able to check in early. Staff was very helpful and accommodating. There was a band playing on one of the nights and movie on the beach for kids. Some of the best ice cream and the water was great swimming! Would highly recommend this campground for anyone.

Pros: Very friendly staff, very nice store with an ice cream parlor and espresso bar, large playground for kids, nice sandy beach area, lots of picnic tables near the beach, shallow/clear water and a dock you can swim off of. The beach is walking distance from just about every campsite (although there are some large hills to walk up). Cons: Rocky, dusty soil, mountainous terrain, some sites are on the edge of cliffs and not safe for children, some sites are quite small but I've seen smaller. The paths are mostly gravel so it's not really a good place for kids to bring bikes. Fire rings are more like small bbq pits. Overall I would recommend it and plan to go back. We had site 5 and I would not recommend it for a camping trailer. It might not be bad for an r.v. Since I have small kids I would like to try to get a site closer to the beach and playground next time, although the walk wasn't too bad. I had AT&T and did not have any service but I didn't mind.

Collins Lake opens at sunrise all year round. You have lakefront RV sites with or without hook ups. Tent camping, fishing, boating, picnics or just enjoying the beach. I was there for 3 nights, seem like everyone comes to the store for there monstrous ice cream. Our group went there twice. There is also a boat launch marina and boat rentals. A large sandy beach where you can swim. A children's playground, beach volleyball, shady picnic area, general store, laundry and hot showers. Every site has a fire ring and picnic table. We were there in Sept. No phone service. My wife has Sprint and had 1 bar for texting :) There is free wifi by the store. A hiking trail around the whole lake.

We spent one night here when the campground was half full and how peaceful it was! Friendly staff who made it easy to select our site, which had a nice view of the pretty lake. They’ve done a great job giving each campsite plenty of space, a level spot, view & amenities of electric, water, new picnic table & firepit under black oak trees. I can imagine how busy this campground is during summer with the lake’s boating, fishing & swimming areas, beach, playground and movie night. Nice store & delicious ice cream!

OK place. They screwed up our bit rental. No full hook ups. Showers cost extra. WiFi costs extra. No satellite reception though we were given a site that supposedly had it. No cell reception. Extra WiFi only allowed 2 devices and only the two first you signed up with so beware. And extenders were not allowed. Sites were very dusty and dirty. We were here mid week. Weekends very crowded. No shopping nearby. No restaurants. We couldn’t catch a fish in 3 days. Lake water very very very low. Boats did not have all coast guard required equipment like an anchor or a throw rope. Someone in out party nearly drowned because of the lack of a throw rope. Very hilly access to sites.
