What campers say

Bulltown Campground offers attractive lakefront camping with clean water, frequent wildlife sightings, and a generally peaceful atmosphere. Sites vary — some are spacious and shady with great views while others feel tighter and sit close together, so it can be cramped when full and parking may be awkward. Bathhouses are generally kept clean with hot water, though a few guests suggested updates. Amenities include playgrounds, boat and kayak access, convenient dump and fresh-water stations, and a small historic area. Note that cell service is spotty and campground Wi‑Fi is paid and often unreliable.
