This is a great campground and public beach area. They have 55 sites including 6 Rustic sites (20$ a night), 1 cabin (45$ a night), 6 50 amp sites (33$ a night) and 42 30 amp sites (28$ a night). They have a small camp store with basics like ice, firewood, charcoal, lighters, flashlight etc. They re-did their bathrooms and showers 2 years ago so they are nicer than most around.

I grew up camping here and now bring my own kids. Campground staff is friendly and accommodating. Sites are well shaded and easy to arrange if camping in groups. Water and electric hookups available and one dump station on your way out. Bathrooms and showers are typically clean, occasionally bugs find there way in but it’s typical close to the lake. Watch for goose poop at the beach and wet groun... I grew up camping here and now bring my own kids. Campground staff is friendly and accommodating.

Bathrooms and showers are typically clean, occasionally bugs find there way in but it’s typical close to the lake. Watch for goose poop at the beach and wet ground if it’s been rainy. The park did remove the baseball/kickball field backdrop this past year but the field is still open to play in.

I grew up coming here to go swimming. Used to be a little beach that since has vanished into the lake. But it's still a nice lake to get away from the city life.
