Thompson's Lake State Park Campground

Great state campground with a small beach on Thompson's Lake. The lake isn't huge but the water is very clean and perfect for swimming and small boats. Many people fish either from boats or by the shore.nnThe campground is well cared for and the bathrooms are clean. There is a decent sized sand beach with life guards during the day. They usually have boat rental and there's a nice playground near the beach; however, both are closed due to the virus.nnDuring the week, the beach wasn't too busy. They have signs for people to space 10ft. apart which people were adhering to. In the water it was pretty easy to keep a distance.nnAbout 1/2 the campground was empty; however, most sites on the loop with lake access were occupied. There are only a few sites were you can clearly see the lake, but many ways to get to the lake quickly. Most sites are spaced well apart, so you don't feel on top of others.nnThey sell firewood $6/bag and ice $2/bag at the front gate; however, that's about it.nnIt's a family friendly campground, so there are quite a few kids... riding bikes, etc. especially around the lake loop.nnThere is a nature center with hiking trails adjacent to the campground. Thatcher Park is a short drive too.

Great place for first time campers.. we did the trail's and played on the camp grounds, not one bug bit (15 people BEAUTIFUL noone got bitten). The lake area was nice people social distancing. I have no complaints about camp grounds lady's in the front when checking in were great wish I would have remembered names. I tried to tip them and she would not take the tip. Both ladies made our first step in camping feel great explaining everything and making sure we had our map of the camp grounds. Bathroom clean for the most part. Campers friendly. We had a great time. I will be back.

A nice small lake for kayaking. Very family oriented. Most families are practicing social distancing. People weren't wearing there masksnappropriately which made us shy away from the restrooms and shower buildings. Luckily we aren't tenters ud83dude02. So if your family is trying to avoid larger crowds this really is not secluded and the beach area is very small.

Great location, campsites, amenities, and staff. Was a little disappointed with some litter at the campsite but I understand it's difficult to deal with during COVID, and everyone should be cleaning up after themselves anyway.

Nice, cozy camping near the lake. A beach with sand. Beautiful area.
