We had been to W. Kerr Scott Dam & Reservoir unplanned. It was early spring and afternoon was not so hot. We had our picnic there and walked a lot with kids. It's a nice place with cool breeze from water surface. It must be awesome during fall from dam sight seeing point. I made promise to myself to come back again in fall. Saw lot of people with fishing rods too, so must be great spot for fishing.nOnly thing needed is shaded area for spending long hours.

beautiful lake with views of the mountains in the background. great for kayaking and paddle boarding with some little creek offshoots to explore. we caught some fish here which was fun for the kids. plenty of swim beaches with playgrounds which the kids also enjoyed. impressive dam adds to the interest. three fantastic mountain biking trails around the lake, which you can link and ride together if you have the energy. multiple RV and tent camping locations.

Randomly discovered this place on a trip home from the mountains. It's cool to drive across the dam and see the water below. The nearby park is cute and good for a short walk. It was very quiet when we visited which was nice since we were able to relax a while before getting back on the road.

My wife, my dog, and myself have camped in a tent many times at Bandits Roost Campground. We tent camp and the pads are in fantastic condition and large. We have plenty of room for a large tent, a cooking table, and a large canopy. During the Spring and Summer, the trees and undergrowth provide privacy from the other campers. The tent pads are also right on top of the lake. It is a beautiful spot. If you want to camp there in a tent, plan ahead. There are only a small number of sites for tent camping and they are very popular. Showers and bathrooms are within easy walking distance and clean. Kiln dried firewood has been available every time we have visited over the last three years. It burns rather than smoking without any progress toward actual flames. This is the nicest campground we have found in the region, and there are many good ones. Thank you Army Corps of Engineers!

This was a nice place to visit with our kids! Very quiet and peaceful! There was an easy walking trail next to the visitors center that went down to a viewing area and then back up to the parking lot. We were disappointed that the visitor's center is currently closed due to covid-19.
