Lake Cisco Campground
The place was a lot of fun– from the overall vibe, getting to see the night sky and to the campgrounds themselves, everything felt well-maintained and cared for. The vibe was perfect, with a mix of relaxation and adventure in the air. Exploring was a blast! There were hiking trails everywhere, each offering something unique. The abandoned zoo, is an absolute treat. Exploring the old cabins from the 1920s scattered around – is extremely memorable! Each path had something new to uncover, and the whole place was filled with hidden history and surprises. I can’t wait to go back and explore even more!

Rich History and Dystopian Vibe
Staying at the Lake Cisco Campground was a wonderful experience. We stayed in a tent for 2 days and enjoyed hiking, climbing, and exploring the property and the nearby abandoned zoo. It’s incredible and a bit sad to see what has become of structures that are (in some cases) more than 100 years old. The host is knowledgeable about the area and very friendly! The co-host, Thor was an exceptionally good boy and treated my brat (the dog I brought) with the patience that she absolutely did not deserve. We had a wonderful experience and regret that we were unable to stay longer. We definitely plan to return.

Great stay it was in a safe location with a great view directly above the road leading to the Old Zoo. The old cabins were awesome and it leads right to the dam. I will be back for sure.

Plenty of space.
Lake Cisco Campground isn’t a traditional campground. It did however provide what we needed. After some circling around the property we found a fire pit and an electric outlet and made camp. It was quiet after dinner and the stars were not missed.

Great time in Cisco
We had a great time at this campsite. It’s small and a little tucked away, but it’s close to everything. Easy access to the zoo hiking trail. Super close to the old caves and cages. Very quiet, very interesting with all of the old cabins. We will be back again. The only Thing this campground needs is more signage. But if you had more signage, the more people would come to it and it might lose its old-school character. Second Thought don’t change anything! L O L
