We really enjoyed our stay at this quite secluded campground. Plenty of shade and the park attendants were nice. There are a few docks that you can fish off of and the park was clean. Nice little playground for the kids too. The bath house was a little outdated, but it was clean.

You have to drive about a mile down a dirt road to get to this campground and it is in the middle of nowhere. So be prepared to take everything you will be needing. The closest town is roughly 30-45 min away. You may want to be careful with pets too because we saw a 3 gators during our stay. They were small, but im sure there are larger ones around.

The water views are beautiful. It is also a great place to ride bikes. The dirt road is no big deal at all. Only downside is the location. It's in the middle of nowhere.

The road leading into the park is very bad. It is the ONLY bad point of our trip. We had to leave a day early because we were afraid we could not get our RVs out because of the dirt road.
Once you get into the camp ground, it is excellent!!! The grounds are very well kept. The gate attendance is warm and welcoming. The view from the camp ground is beautiful.
This is one of my favorite campsites in dry weather.

Boat piers are in need of repair. There was a tree cut down laying across the path to one of the piers and host helped cut it up and remove. The grass is grown up on paths to piers and can’t access. The host is very helpful and weather was perfect!!! Had a lot of fun fishing and having fish fries with fellow campers. My favorite park even though work is needed.
