Lake Bruin State Park

Stayed Sun- Tues so it was pretty empty, sites are closer together than a typical state park, but similar to other waterfront campgrounds we’ve been at,site #2 has a little more space around it because it’s at a slightly different angle
One of the cleanest bathhouses I’ve ever seen!
Nice swimming area and a splash pad for the kids!
One drawback- sites #1-5 are under the harsh glow of a bright street light,
Each site has a nice wood plank platform next to the driveway.
Heads up-Site 15 is right next to the fishing pier, so you would have people walking through your driveway if it was more crowded

Stopped in here for one night on our way back home. Got in at 8:00 pm it looked like a nice campground, it is well lit and well maintained. There were a dozen other campers, and the usual Saturday night campground noise, but when 11:00 pm came around a pack of teenagers were running thru the park screeming and yelling. Just kids right. This kept up till I finally had to call the Sherriff at 1:30 am. He drove thru at around 2:00 the kids yelled here comes the law and went inside and it was quiet the rest of the night. It's a very nice park, but I'd avoid the weekends.

There is nothing around this park to entertain you but the surroundings are really pretty. No trails to hike but the draw to this park would be the water activities on the lake. We saw lots of fisherman. The sites are close together and might be a problem when busy but we were there in the winter with about 4 other campers so it was quiet. There were lots of birds around to watch and learn as we did quite a bit. The facilities were very nice and the laundry room was the best enclosed one I have seen and experienced. A really good grocery store and dollar general only about 5 miles away. Take a walk on the levy for something different. They had wifi that worked well for the basics.
