Lake Thompson Recreation Area is located on the northeast shores of the lake, on the site of the former Flood Club. Each of the 56 electrical campsites has a fire ring and picnic table. Two camping cabins offer breathtaking views of the lake. The group rental lodge, a newly remodeled farm house, is perfect for large group reunions, family functions or hunting trips. The 5-bedroom facility includes a comfortable living room, dining room, kitchen with major appliances, two full bathrooms with showers and nice outdoor deck with gas grill.
Nearby space is also available for campers, complete with electrical hookups.
Boat launching facilities include a double-lane ramp, a dock, toilet and gravel parking lot will also be available at Lake Thompson Recreation Area in 1999. Work is underway to improve township roads leading to the park. A park entrance license is now required for everyone entering the park. The group rental lodge can be reserved for any time during the year beginning January 3. Mark your calendar for July 7-8.
