Madsen Bay Campground sits directly on Scofield Reservoir within Scofield State Park, offering lakefront camping with full hookups for RVs up to 30 feet. The campground provides electric, water, and sewer connections, though campers should bring extended hoses as utility connections may be positioned on the opposite side from where RVs park. Sites include picnic tables and allow campfires, with restrooms and showers available on-site.
The reservoir supports fishing for brown and rainbow trout, with some campers also catching crawfish from the waters. Swimming is permitted in the lake during the mid-May through late September season. For campers preferring a different lakeside experience, Scofield State Park Campground offers an alternative less than a mile away.
