My son lived in his motor home at this park several years ago. I drove through today and it's still a nice campground. The spots are large and shady. There are concrete picnic tables at each one plus pretty good grills. Some spots are right on the water. There are sewer setups if you plan on being there long term.

This is a very nice RV Park with about 100 spaces for rent. The park manager and wife are very friendly. The park roadway is marked off with arrows and mile markers and is three miles (five kilometers) from start to finish. For the adventurous types there is a two mile loop forest hiking trail.
