The USACE campgrounds are looking for volunteers, so this camp ground wasn’t always fully staffed at the gate. We were at site 20, which was next to 2 CLOSED sites. That definitely provided some privacy until the last night when a motor home was set up there. We were thinking it might be their emergency sites, as you could tell they had t been used in a while. The site itself was great, though the walk down to the water was VERY steep by the picnic tables. You have to follow the trail that’s to the right of the main area of the campsite for a safer path to the water.

Really nice campground on Lake Russell. We stayed on site 70 and our daughter stayed on site 69. They were large sites and level. It was pretty private. There was a sloped hill down to the water, but we managed to take our kayaks down and it was a nice peaceful time. You could swim here if wanted. There were some campers out in the water at their sites. We walked around the park and drove to some nearby hiking spots.
We thought sites 30 & 29 were the best.
There were a lot of bugs and ants. There was a Dollar General near the entrance. There was no Wi-Fi or TV signal. Making calls on my phone worked at times.

We spent 4 weeknights at Modoc in late May. We had our section of the campground all to ourselves. It was great. Fishing was good water was warm. We enjoyed it enough we never left the site except to walk around.

We have stayed all around this site, so glad to have had a chance to stay here. Its a large site with good views. We did have a problem with ants even though we sprayed and put out comet and had ant hotels in my cabinets those worked for the cabinets but woke up every morning with a trail of ants to my dogs food dish. I did find that the bathroom didn't have soap this time. It was fun camping in an area we've camped before and seeing the same people we camped with in 2019. Darlene and Stan are very nice. We did have rounds of bad storms and Darlene came around to warn us and give us instructions of what to do if it got real bad. We have always been happy with this campground. We will be back in Sept. for a final trip for the year.

Beautiful CoE campground. Very quiet. Almost all of the sites are on the water. It is a very out of the way campground, so not too busy. Don’t forget to bring everything you need with you. It is a long way to the closest town.

This is a very nice COE campground with a long peninsula reaching out into Storm Thurmond Reservoir. Site 32 is among the nicest but most are waterfront with large, gravel, well appointed, well maintained, water and electric sites. Unfortunately, this week, many people left early due to swarms of tiny black ants. Im not sure of the type but if they are a variety called “crazy ants” they can destroy your electronics. When my car would not start, I got concerned. Turns out it was a bad battery. They got in the trailer and the car and were only kept at bay with spectracide sprayed on the trailer and the car and “deep woods off”sprayed on the inside of the trailer, in the trash can, and in each trash bag. “Off”will melt plastic so use care. Finally I sprayed the tires and rolled forward a half turn. I love a challenge. Stop at the Dollar General just down the road, on the way in, and get the bug spray. They happily stock large quantities for the campers here. Or just go somewhere else. There are several other nice COE campgrounds on the lake.

Guess it can vary from site to site , so check it out. ( we were in #21) Great walks, also beaches and boat ramps. Definitely will come back to these delightful COE.
We did have some ants come aboard, possibly due to some serious storms and water pooling at camp site

Absolutely the worst camping experience we have ever had! We have camped all over this beautiful country in all types of campgrounds from ones with full services to dispersed/primitive areas and everything in between and have never experienced such horrible conditions and staff. The couple that “runs” the place are very sweet but do not monitor the park at all, they don’t clean the bathrooms and showers and the women’s showers had no hot water. We had at least two dozen people at the site next to us who stayed up till 2 am both nights we were there and despite us informing the front office after the first night they still never came by to enforce any quiet time or parking issues etc. We should not have to call police on people and risk being targeted for something that is their JOB. But instead the drunk neighbors decided to report us for leaving our teenage son at the site to fish while we took our younger son to ride his bike. The park ranger Suzanne (not the camp hosts) came down when we retuned to the site to question us about the age of our son and lied to us saying she had been down patrolling and noticed he was alone. She was aggressive from the moment she entered our site then demanded that I control my dogs who were on leashes and only barked when she continued to be aggressive, they were not aggressive towards her or anyone else at any time. She then insisted that we never reported the ongoing disturbances with the neighbors to anyone (we reported it to both the husband and wife on two separate occasions and had even asked to move sites) and that we were the problem and needed to leave immediately. We agreed that we did not want to stay anyways and began packing up, as we were leaving we stopped at the front to check out and return the car tag and then the ranger pulled up behind us there and was aggressive again. We simply were trying to enjoy a weekend with our family and dogs at the lake but it’s obvious we came to the wrong place.
