Our campsite host/ranger was great! The bathroom by our site was the cleanest bathroom i have ever used while camping! We weren't thrilled about the bear sitings around us but nobody but the bear is to blame for that.

Hands down my favorite place to go camping. The site was clean. The weather was perfect. I was able to take my kayaks on the water. The brick and mortar restrooms were down but porta John's were available and cleaned regularly. Can't rave enough about this place.

Love the volunteer Park worker she’s amazing so full of knowledge the place was beautiful. Well kept the restaurant although we loved it. We’re a little upset about the split fate plate fees even if I’m ordering an appetizer and my husband‘s ordering a meal that’s considered a split plate even though we don’t ask to split it outside of that for for crabcakes great place wonderful lake everything was terrific

Firstly, the camp host was friendly and attentive.
But the particular spot I booked was not so hot. It was close to the toilet, which up there are pit toilets, not flush toilets. I prefer them, especially as the water to the campground is still off. Been off all summer.
This spot was pretty much parking on the road and walking down stairs to the lower level to do anything. There's not a stitch of privacy for this spot. And pretty much the same for shade unless you walk into the woods.
Cell service was a joke!
I wish spots like this didn't exist! The only good thing was solar.
