Small cafe with yummy food for lunch... Mostly couples some bring kids. We have been to over 30 nudist resorts in the US and find this one to be up in the top 5 Nice big pool, clean showers and bathrooms, and it's all done by volunteer members. Great place for first timers who want to ease into nudity. Many tent and RV sites. We can't wait to go back !!!

Most weekends they have activities we landed on BBQ cookout and music it was really good. Lots of people food and music very happy place. They have a POOL for kids and a heated pool for adults we felt bad that we didn't bring our bathing suits but I wet my feet just to enjoy the water a little bit A nice trail for hiking and a basketball court. I can't express enough how happy I was with my husband's choice for a mini vacation. Just one downside, WOOD is a hit or miss here due to outside storage could be wet could be dry and of course wet does not burn well. See you next year

The cottages themselves look really cute although we didn't go inside them. A lot of them are lakefront, which is lovely. If you haven't been here, give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

We camped here as a stop on a road trip, so we I think we only spent a total of 14 hours at this…read morecampground. The rangers were nice and helpful. The campsite was clean. We did have very close neighbors, but only on one side. Other than those people, there were not really any sites close by. We could see them, but they were through the trees. It was one of the quietest campgrounds I have ever visited, which was awesome. The neighbors played a little music, but at such a low volume, I could not even tell you the genre. They turned it off the minute it got dark. The showers were great with lots of hot water and good water pressure. I have no idea what it would be like to actually stay at this park as a destination, but it was great as a stop on the way. My only complaint was that our campsite was pretty good sized, like it should easily hold 2-3 tents. We had one 6 person tent. There was no obvious good place for the tent. Where we pitched it, we were on a slight hill and there was a large root. The other option was extremely hard packed gravel and also a slight hill. Because we were just using sleeping pads, we did not like the idea of the packed gravel. I guess that is fine for a camper or if you are using a thicker mattress.

The campground itself is secluded and quiet. There are spots for RV and tent camping. Bathrooms are extremely clean and well kept. The lady that runs it is super nice, but don't speed on her grounds or she will destroy you. The lake is home to all kinds of wildlife and teeming with fish. Whether you have a ski boat or a canoe it is accommodating! Overall a great place to get away and enjoy nature!! Just don't tell anyone I told you about the secret spot.

My family and I recently went camping here for the 4th of July weekend. We took a bit of a gamble…read morecoming here since there just seems to be so few reviews online, but we really enjoyed our stay and wanted to share details since it seems that those are missing...And since some things have changed. Campground Rules: Some earlier reviews had mentioned that vehicles are not allowed at the sites, and this is what is specified on the current list of campground rules. I would advise visitors to call ahead to ask, but at the time of our visit (July 2021), we were told that vehicles ARE allowed to remain at the campsites, which is extremely convenient! Due to COVID-19, however, the group sites are currently unavailable and there are some campsites that are left empty to allow for social distancing. Sanitary Facilities: the sanitary facilities listed on the website are NOT all the same! The three in the camping area are essentially outhouses (see picture attached) and are pretty messy (they have hand sanitizer and toilet paper available, but also some spiders! But I guess that's what you expect with rustic camping...On the plus side, they also hang up some air fresheners so they did smell pretty good). However, they DO have much nicer bathrooms in the day-use/picnic area, right behind the showers. These have flush toilets, toilet paper, sinks, soap, and paper towels, and are cleaned daily. Other Amenities: there are trash cans dispersed across the camping area, which are easily accessible but also protected against wildlife. We also did see white trucks from First Light (the company running the campground) once or twice patrolling the area, so it seems that it is pretty safe. They did not bother us or interact with us at all, but it was nice to know that they were around. Additionally, we did not use the showers but they are coin-operated so do bring coins if you plan on showering! Checking In/Out: we visited the Campground Office and Paddlesport Center to check in and out of our campsite. The staff there were very friendly and processed us very quickly. We also rented kayaks for the morning, and they were super accommodating and it was a great experience! Fees: this may change, but at the time of our stay, we paid $22/day for our campsite and I believe $25 for 2 hours for a tandem kayak (the price is the same for solo kayaks and also stand-up paddleboards). We got a bundle of wood at the Campground Office and Paddle Sport Center for less than $6, and it lasted a pretty long time. Camp Sites: the campsite itself was very spacious. We had Site 27, which was pretty isolated due to all of the surrounding campsites being closed due to COVID-19 distancing. There is a gate that you have to open to get your car in and out, but it's fairly easy to open (not sure if you're allowed to just leave it open?). Pro-tip for anyone who stays at Site 27: it can be hard to find...But go into the loop for parking and you'll find a separate gate with a post nearby labeled "27". Go through there and Site 27 is on the left! We wandered around a little bit initially...We did not have tent plots on our site, which was just as well since our tent would not have fit anyway. But we did see many other sites with it, and they looked pretty nice! Trails: the nature trail was well-marked and very pretty. Quick warning though: there are some steep areas that were hard to navigate. They have steps constructed for most areas, but do be careful with older individuals or younger children. The Dinosaur Track Quarry was unlabeled unfortunately, but should be relatively easy to find. It's toward the beginning of the trailhead at the parking area and is distinguished by a cliff face and a lot of small, thin stones (possibly shale stones?). There are also a couple of overlooks available throughout the trail, like in one of the images attached, seen at sunset. These were really nice! Kayaking: As mentioned previously, we did rent out kayaks from the Campground Office and Paddlesport Center! There's a lot of space to paddle around (we only did 2 hours, but there was a lot more to explore) and the staff helped with bringing everything (boats, paddles, and life jackets) to and from the launching area. We surprisingly saw a lot of swans and their cygnets around (I want to say maybe 10 families???), as well as ducks and geese. Overall Experience: We really enjoyed our stay overall at Barton Cove. Whenever we had questions, the staff over the phone were incredibly friendly and accommodating. Our stay was peaceful and quiet (with the exception of fireworks in nearby places - not in the campground itself - due to the 4th of July). Our only complaint is that we wish that the outhouses were a little bit better maintained. There were some spiderwebs in places you really don't want them to be...I also wish that the website could be updated to reflect some of the rule changes and include more information!

First off, I read reviews that said its loud and I can say that yes on sat nights they do music and that is FOR the campground and the kids and adults have a blast but its NOT all night and once 11pm hits the music stops and campground is completely quiet and you really can only hear it where I am , near the field . And I have not found it to be abnoxiously loud any other time. ITS A CAMPGROUND people are coming to have fun!! And I read someone mention trash. There is no trash or garbage "all over the place" sites are not in "shambles" what I DO see is people that work for the campground going around maintaining the campground. Picking up trash, mowing etc. They do have a strict policy about driving too fast through the campground for cars and golf carts but I can understand that since there are lots of kids that are running around do you want to worry about your child being hit? I love camping at pout and trout and have gotten the most peace and quiet than I have gotten in years. No one bothers me and I dont bother anyone. I have awesome neibors that camp beside me and Im so happy to have a big area to garden . The staff are absolutely wonderful and I read bad reviews about the pool and don't understand why because as of this year the pool is sparkling clean I went there on one of our hottest days and was refreshed not discusted like reviewer said. So what I can say to these people that have in the past wrote terrible reviews about pout and trout is go back and give it another shot I bet you will change your review because it really is a great campground and I plan on being here for years to come to make many memories with my new grandson. Happy camping!!!!
