I enjoyed staying at Sweetwater. It was a beautiful site with lots of songbirds and friendly campers. The site was as described and the hosts were helpful. Lots of history at Sweetwater that I found interesting. Sweetwater Lake Campground has been in the family for 3 generations and it is in the process of being upgraded. Expect more glamping tents and other things soon. I would camp here again.

What a cute place! Nestled in the quiet countryside, cute farm animals to pet, easy in and out pull through layout of the campground. Extra bonus of farm fresh eggs and Clair's baked goods! The bath house was amazingly clean and well appointed - just like a nice hotel bathroom!

We arrived late and only stayed for one night while passing through the area but it was great, a peaceful night with easy checkin and friendly hosts. Would love to come back when we can stay longer and explore the land and lake!

My experience in Jesse’s land was great. He was very friendly and accommodating when I first arrived. It was nice and private with a personal fire pit, though I didn’t use it.

1 night at Sweetwater Lake Campground
I had a great one-night stay at Sweetwater. The site and the bathroom were clean and well-maintained. There were other campers in RVs nearby, but everyone was quiet.
I booked the glamping tent site, but I only intended on using my own hammock in the nearby trees. When the host realized I wasn't actually using the tent, she generously gave me a refund! She was very easy to coordinate with. If I'm in the area again, I would definitely come back to stay here.

Really well maintain camp area with the added bonus of the farm! The bath house was spotless. I booked the lamb cuddle and bottle feed time and it was the highlight of my week! Clair’s baked goods are really good too.

Olivia was so sweet helping us coordinate arrival at Sweetwater. There ended up being a huge storm so we did not stay, however she was super accommodating and we will 100% be back - it looks like such a sweet oasis and we are excited to fish in her families waterways!

1 night at Private Oasis In The Forest
We loved it! Amazing spot for our dog to roam, lovely but short trail around the lake, a little row boat we didn't use but would have been a fun little adventure - we set our tent up inside because the windows are wide open so just to keep bugs off us though we didn't notice many the night we were there - great experience especially for the price!
We were tenting and it was calling for a thunderstorm and we couldn't have asked for a better spot to watch watch the rain come down and listen to it on the tin roof!

The A-frame was perfect! Enough space to be able to relax in. Every morning, afternoon and evening, my dog and I would sit on the dock gazing out at the lake with Herons, Osprey, Geese, Ducks and Cormorants all flying past.
With the boat ramp right there, we would easily cast off on our SUP for the lake.
Jesse, his wife and kids were wonderful and so nice. Their place and land offered so much to do. My dog got to feel like a country dog, interacting with the chickens, running through the woods and snoozing by the fire pit.
This trip was exactly what I needed and desired. I loved every minute at Jesse's place.

Great site, short walk to the lake edge where we put in our kayaks. Wood pallet was generous and set up was nice. We saw a bald eagle minutes after making a toast to those fighting overseas (can’t make this stuff up)! Found a 1965 nickel on the ground, wonder what other hidden historic secrets are in this area. Awesome campsite!

What a sweet place to visit! Already planning our next trip there. Lovely, family-friendly spot. Great trails to meander on their property. So fun to see the animals and experience farm life in a laid back, well-run campground. Your only regret will be having to leave.

The cabin was cozy and peaceful, by a nice little pond. Could use a bit more kitchen equipment like pots and pans, but otherwise sufficiently equipped. The heater worked great to keep us warm on cold evenings.
My son loved seeing the beautiful horses and animals, and playing with the very friendly farm dogs who kept us company. George and their daughter were friendly and nice to chat to. Thank you for a fun stay on your beautiful farm!

This was a perfect place to stop for the night! Quiet, safe, and everything taken care of. She even had a fire going for me when I arrived! I would love to go back when I have more time to spend on the lake.

This spot totally blew us away. Seriously, the vibes were immaculate. And those fresh eggs? Don't even get me started. So good, like sunshine on a plate. We're already planning our next visit. This place is a hidden gem, for sure. Can't wait to go back and soak it all in again. It's the kind of place that just makes you happy.

Jesse was outstanding, He was really nice and communicative, sadly we had to leave early because of the weather, was really windy and colder that we expected for that day, ( check the weather really carfuly before planning your trip, totally my fault) even so, he offered to pay a full refund. Campsite Overlooking Lake at Prices Bridge Inn & Campgrounds is a beutifull place with a lot of things to do an collect good memories with your love ones.

What a great stay! We were arriving right at sunset, so Jesse sent a video on exactly where to find the campsite. The area was quiet and peaceful, and we were able to find plenty of firewood. In the morning, we were able to get some fresh well water and meet the dogs! Definitely recommend.
