I went tent camping here. Pros: nice lake view tent sites, quiet at night, friendly staff, nice little camp store with nice shower rooms/ bathrooms. No alcohol allowed, so keeps the loud partiers away. Cons: very expensive for tent camping, 2 nights cost $88 after fees and taxes. I was only willing to pay that because I had the weekend planned and I had to go farther away to escape weather. A... I went tent camping here.

Cons: very expensive for tent camping, 2 nights cost $88 after fees and taxes. I was only willing to pay that because I had the weekend planned and I had to go farther away to escape weather. Almost every tent sight was hilly or sloped, so they really didn’t have much flat or level area great for a tent, especially if you have a large family tent. The ground at all of the sites was very rocky as well, knee busters when you’re in the tent.. beware site 48, it has poison on the trees, I am still recovering 2 weeks later. The bathhouse near the boat dock was filthy the whole weekend we were there and wasn’t cleaned in that time. Kind of looked like the toilet had over flowed and there were chunks of devolved toilet paper left all over the floor.

Nice campground, we had a spot on the water making it extra peaceful. Not super tent friendly but we did it.

Campers beware. The photos on their website are of their premium sites only. The more affordable sites are located on a wooded hillside. These sites are narrow, tiny, crooked, and very uneven. I booked a pull through site, yet when I drove past the site, what I saw was a slanted open space amongst the trees that looked more like a tent site. It would have required me to drive up a small hill and a... Campers beware. The photos on their website are of their premium sites only. The more affordable sites are located on a wooded hillside. These sites are narrow, tiny, crooked, and very uneven. I booked a pull through site, yet when I drove past the site, what I saw was a slanted open space amongst the trees that looked more like a tent site. It would have required me to drive up a small hill and around a tree to park on the heavily slanted ground. The road to get to these sites was very narrow, rusted, twisty, and at times steep. My RV is only 23 foot, but I felt that I could not fit in the site that I had booked. Even the office is on a hillside with no level place to park for arrivals. I was not willing to pay $129 a night for a spacious, sort-of level, premium site, so I chose to go to another campground.

Sites have no flat spots, had to put fire ring on pad to cook. Sites could use better view of lake, Clear out some brush around shore. Parade of golf carts not necessary after dark. Speeding is rampant and speed bumps not painted. OK place, but if you are not going into lake, nothing special here
