“The gentleman who takes care of the upkeep of Upper Billy does an amazing job. Arriving there, the campsite was clean and raked like it was a zen garden. Also the restrooms were spotless. That man takes great pride in his work and it shows!”

Jun O 5 · Jan 2020 · Recreation.gov

“Beautiful view, so much to see. Perfect campground. ”

Ana E 4 · Jan 2020 · Recreation.gov

“Our site was nice. The kids got to see some of the wildlife in the area. Fishing wasn't as great as in previous years but the kids had a ball in the water. Just make sure you take bug spray. Thankfully we did! ”
