The park itself is beautiful with wonderful views of the lake. The bathrooms are very nice, when they are clean. The problem is they only have one employee whom we never saw until the last 2 days of our trip. We had to clean our showers out before using them the entire time we were there. Also the sites are beautiful, but very poorly marked. So we had no idea where we were supposed to be and had... The park itself is beautiful with wonderful views of the lake.

We had to clean our showers out before using them the entire time we were there. Also the sites are beautiful, but very poorly marked. So we had no idea where we were supposed to be and had to call someone for assistance upon arrival. They kinda described where we were supposed to be. Still not sure we were on the right spot. The beach is not an actual beach. Its about a 2ft cliff you have to jump over to get into the slightly snake infested water. Do NOT recommend swimming here. Overall, we would come back again, but the park definitely needs some more regular maintenance.

A small hidden gem county park. Three showers, one of which has a shower bench. Park manager was friendly and helpful. Even brought our wood bundles down to the site for us. Looking forward to staying again. Was a great getaway.

Swimming area, picnic area. Nice shallow spot for wading! Portable potty. We would definitely come back and maybe consider camping next time!

Pretty lake and sunsets. Good for kayaking or boating. Clean bathrooms and showers. Configuration of campsites and fire pits was a little strange. A few sites were a little far from water and electric hook ups.

The bathrooms are ALWAYS clean, and the camp ground is pretty nice too! The playground seems to be getting smaller as time goes on but it's still a decent size. The lake is usually clean, and they have a good place for boats too. Our family comes here for 10 days every year! We love it here. I highly suggest this place for everyone!
