Catfish Bay Campground — Hotel in Madill

The first thing that should be listed on the details of this place is that there's a highway bridge across the lake directly across from campsites that don't face the Bay. There's literally traffic noise constantly. I was woken up several times each night by 18 wheelers going across that bridge. They sounded like trains. Or maybe there were trains too...

Also, and I realize this was just bad luck, the one full day I was there, they were mowing the entire time. So, I had that noise to deal with as well. Maybe post a mowing schedule, because I'm allergic to fresh-mown grass and would not have booked when they would be there mowing.

The campsite itself was fine. The restrooms were clean. But it was the absolute loudest campsite I've...

We enjoyed our stay! We stayed at a "Semi Modern" camp site which was well maintained. The water faucet was in an unusual place -- it was at the head of the parking space, in our case, on the opposite side and about 40 feet from our fresh water hookup. We spent the first night not able to hook up to the city water. We stopped by the Walmart on the next day and bought a 50ft hose which allowed us to connect to city water. Our view was that the "modern" sites were close together and we enjoyed the more distanced semi-modern setup...more space and along the water. We would go back but will probably look to staying at Joe's or Ben's campground since we were not there to...

It’s a nice campground, but only barely. The sites have stickers and are grown up. Many grills and fire pits are broken. The restrooms are gross and have open windows facing the showers that barely get warm. And then we come to the campground hosts. They were cordial when we confirmed reservations but that’s it. They seem to have a senior citizen power trip on anyone younger than them and enforce rules when it’s convenient for them. TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE !!! DO NOT ATTEND CATFISH BAY...
