Great little spot off the dirt road. This site was really clean. Others we happened to drive by were terrible with trash, waste and debris left by inconsiderate and disrespectful folks. Nestled in pines, shade and solitude. Rangers visited this morning couldn't have been nicer.

Nice place to stay... friendly and helpful camp host. Wonderful community room. Showers and bathrooms clean and well maintained. Nice laundry. Easy access... Mexican restaurant across the street is really good. Would definitely stay there again, highly recommend.

What a great place!! Hosts and so helpful and friendly. We stayed a week. Clean, wonderful view of the river, close to shops and Clear Lake. Bathroom and showers clean and well maintained. Charles City is a cute and convenient town. Would stay again and highly recommend.

Campsites are large but driveways are narrow. We have a small camper, only 7 ft wide and did fine but larger RVs and trailers will have a tough time. Close to all the RIM attractions, trails, creeks and lakes. Close to town for provisions. Campsites are nestled nicely in the trees and spread apart. It's close enough to the valley for a quick weekend.

Alamo Lake State Park is a beautiful park. Plenty of bird watching and wild burros roam the area. The lake is beautiful and the park is well kept. There are several large campgrounds throughout. Lots of primitive campsites by the lake. Nice camp store and check in area. Store has basic stuff including ice and firewood. Staff are super helpful and We stayed in the Ramada Loop, that was the only area that had electric and availability for our stay. The Ramadas are on the higher end of the park. There are only 12 sites total and only 2 have a good view of the lake. The Park Ranger Maintenance garages and storage is right there and sort of takes away the appeal. RA 7 where we were is right on the bend of the loop. The sites are fairly large but really close together. We had one neighbor behind us and we could hear their water pump every time it kicked on. Not a big deal... just gives you an idea of how close we were. The sites in this area are super unlevel. We have a small camper and it was really frustrating to get set up. Even with our best efforts we still couldn't get fully level. The Ramada is nice with a concrete patio and picnic table. Flush toilets but no showers in the Ramada area. The sites are really rocky and the ground is so hard we couldn't pound in stakes (heavy nail stakes, not the cheapy ones) for our Clam, we had to tie it down to the ramada and the camper. We will most likely visit the park again but will stay in either B loop or the primitive sites by the lake.
