Shoreline Tent Camping
Incredible!
We absolutely loved this place! There was so much to explore, from longhorns, horses, goats, trails, fishing, kayaking, and more. The staff is lovely!! Betty was so helpful and kind, and so were the gentlemen riding around the campground.

Shoreline Tent Camping
Newbie here!
I had no real expectations since this was our first adult camping trip (since cub scouts). We found the place without problems. We checked in quick and started setting up. Within a couple hours we had firewood and were enjoying the dinner by the beautiful pond. Betty was super nice and answered all of our questions. The bathrooms and showers were amazing and clean. We stayed 48 hours and went hiking, kayaking and fishing. The grounds were also very clean and the animals soooo friendly! I loved this place and am sure we will be back!

Booked this spot at last moment noticed and arrived pretty late my fault , place was very cool loved waking up to goats and the sound of geese. Easily accessible in a car with coilovers. Bathrooms were decent . Would recommend for a cheap stay . I had a car / roof top tent setup.

We had a great time camping at Wilderness Shores. Check-in was easy. The site was clean with a great lake view, and the staff were friendly & helpful. We had longhorns that hung around our campsite the first night. Interacting with the different animals was a truly unique & enjoyable experience. We're already planning our next stay.
