Clean campground, nice cabin, beautiful beach area. Seemed small enough to be cozy & comfortable but big enough that it wasn't cramped.

Exceeded our expectations. Staff was great and site (51) was spacious. ONLY remotely down side was the water - first time encountering what smelled to be black pipe for anything other than fire sprinklers and the smell is not great for bathing, LOL but it's doable.. other than that, nothing really negative to say - and that alone definitely would not keep me from returning. It's pretty hard to find many FHU campgrounds/sites in the area and we're glad we found them here.

We visited looking for property for sale in the area. We decided to camp at headwater campgrounds since it looked like a small family friendly campground. Upon arrival the younger man in the office checked us in and was very friendly. Overall the campground was nice but the customer service by the owners was terrible.
On day two we were taking the trash to the dumpster and we're stopped by the owners because we had pulled our pull behind in rather than backing it in - due to trees blocking our door side if our camper when backed in. The owners talked to me in a very condiscending fashion while

A smaller campground but that doesn't mean it lacks the amenities. The beach is crystal clear and clean, the park is on the quiet side, definitely more family oriented, not for party crowds and the staff is helpful and pleasant. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend if you're looking for a peaceful trip with the kiddos or just a couple looking to escape the rat race.

The positive note is that the beach is very nice and the water is clear. The bathrooms are cleaned regularly. However, before arriving, there was a miscommunication with the owner about the campsites we were using. She had a negative attitude and called my husband angry and wasn’t very understanding.
Even though the bathroom was clean, the showers only turn on for about 10 seconds at a time and there is no way to control the temperature. In addition to this, 3 families were charged over 100 dollars per family to use 2 campsites. Their rules and regulations clearly state that you can have up

Stayed 3 nights, and had a great time. Wonderful owners and their pride of ownership shines throughout the property. Great prices on boat rentals, and ice and bait available on site. The bathrooms are super clean. We will definitely add Headwaters to our regular rotation.

Great campground with great owners. Mike and Edna went above and beyond to ensure we had a great trip. We rented two cabins for a week and we were there for a family reunion. Kid friendly environment. Weekly boat rental was well worth it as the lake is beautiful for swimming and fishing. Thank you for everything! We will definitely be returning.
