My new favorite campground. The sites are well spread out, the area is beautiful, and the host Pat was wonderful.

This was a really great little campground. The site we stayed at was far enough from other sites that it felt private. The camp host, Pat, was amazing and kind. She did well to patrol without being invasive or “overbearing.” She did an outstanding job keeping the campground clean and inviting. Everyone was pretty quiet, which was what we were really looking for this trip! Cell service spotty at best, but was great to have solid honest reason to not get sucked into work for 4 days. For non dispersed camping, we’ll definitely be back and hope to see Pat in 2021!

This is a great little basic cg. During the week, it’s normally fairly quiet. Weekends are a whole ‘nother story. But the sites are pretty private. The camp host keeps the bathroom as spotless as possible.

The Camp Host, Pat, was great in working with us for a larger site that was needed. The bathrooms were also not only very clean, they smelled clean!
It would be nice if the sites had longer pads and were not sloped.

Camp host was very nice.
There is only one set of bathroom, but they bathrooms were clean the entire weekend.
Some spots next to the road to the lake are noisy & dusty.

The camp host (Pat) was amazing. She kept the bathrooms spotless and smelling good. My biggest complaint was the people speeding down the road that bordered the campground. Most were going very fast and it made TONS of dust. It was horrible and all the campers were upset about it.
