Bulltown Campground operates from mid-May through late August along the shores of Burnsville Lake, managed by the Army Corps of Engineers. The campground accommodates RVs up to 50 feet with full hookups including electric, water, and sewer connections, plus offers drive-in, walk-in, and boat-in access options. Reservations are available through the standard booking system.
The facility provides comprehensive amenities including restrooms, showers, drinking water, a dump station, and WiFi for purchase. Sites vary in size and proximity to the water, with some positioned directly at the lake's edge for easy swimming and kayaking access. Malena B. notes they "took our kayaks we stayed right next to lake" during their stay. The campground features a boat ramp, designated swimming areas, and fishing spots both within the grounds and about half a mile away.
Loop configurations create bike-friendly paths for children, though some tent sites can feel tight depending on equipment size. Cell service proves spotty throughout the area, making the paid WiFi option useful for weather updates. Wildlife encounters include deer and occasional skunks, particularly around Loop C. A country store on-site stocks forgotten essentials and serves ice cream and pizza.
For additional camping options in the region, campers can explore campgrounds around Napier. The family-oriented atmosphere and consistent cleanliness make this a reliable choice for lake-based camping.
