We live right down the road and frequent this campground often for the beaches trails kayaking and disc golf course. Beautifully maintained. Hats off to whomever cleans the rest rooms- they are always super clean.

Wonderful campground overall. It has places to fish, swim, boat, paddle, and watch gorgeous sunsets/sunrises. The only flaw is a decent selection of campsites have a large slope, making it hard for tent camping and lawn chair setup. 4/5 stars

This was a fairly nice campground. A lot of young families and children. It was packed. Plenty of space between the RVs. They maintain the grounds really well. We left this campground for the campground south of the lake, however.

Really like this place. Both beaches were clean. The bathroom and shower facilities were clean. Check-in was painless. Didn't like the fact that they dumped the cleaning water from the bathroom in the grass. They were also mowing at 530 pm and went right through our site while we were cooking other than that recommend this place

Wonderful host. She was very helpful. The campground is very nice and well maintained. I had an outhouse near my tent site and it was spotless. There was lake access, hiking and biking trails and playgrounds for the kiddies. Bring your National Park Seniors pass and get 50% off the $14 fee (tent - no power). All in all a great stay.
