What People Are Saying About Pleasant Creek State Recreation Area

“Nice big campsites. Clean bathrooms with warm showers (sweet). Close to the lake. Camp hosts at each camping site. Quit, clean and well kept. One of the better campsites I’ve been to in the US. The birds and wind will wake one up unlike other campsites were it is the screams of the other campers parting and trucks using their engine brakes. Note: use bug spray because there is a big lake and they will attack. The mosquitoes thought I was a buffet tasting different parts of me until I bathed in bug spray. I smell a bit funky and my eyes are watering, but at least I don’t have welts all over now.” -Sam R., Yelp
