We enjoyed a great stay at shaded site 37 on a bluff overlooking the water. We were set up in a tent trailer at parking level with table, chairs, pop up toilet area on the lower level. Good cell signal. Quiet (mid-week stay). Every site is attractive, just need to select based on size of camper as some would not work with big rigs. Bathhouse was very clean, however it’s a steep walk up from sites along the river. Highly recommend for beauty, cleanliness, privacy, and friendly attendants.

All the camp sites were well maintained and clean. The bathrooms were clean and warm. The lake was a perfect back drop to most of the camp sites. This is a very quiet and peaceful campground which is set within a mature forest.

Overall good experience. Not happy with there only being one bathroom on site and barely any hot water in the shower.

We really enjoyed our self at this park. It is very put together and clean. The sites for tenting are on the smaller side but we’re able to pitch our tent on concrete, so not a deal breaker. We had great cell service with CSPIRE. However, the reason we did not give this 5 stars is the bathhouse. The bathhouse was clean BUT we showered 4 out of the 5 nights with ZERO hot water. Which almost ruined our trip… we will definitely come back because it was a beautiful park and the staff were absolutely amazing and sweet BUT not until the water issue is resolved.
