Clean, quiet sites with beautiful views. Site 29 was in a great location - decent space between campsites and sits right on a hill. A few folks got lost coming back from the lake and ended up at the foot of our campsite, but it wasn't a big deal - everyone was super friendly. Bathroom was clean and despite feeling in the middle of the woods, the campground wasn't too far from town. Didn't see a ton of wildlife, but did hear a pack of coyotes yipping and howling in the middle of the night. We will be returning!

Our campout was really great! The space was nice and clean, and the fire ring was perfect. The entire place was clean and well kept. We only wish there were parking passes included so we didn't have to pay extra for parking at the boat launch to kayak. 2 cars every time you want to kayak seems like much after we paid for a double campsite. All-in-all a wonderful time!

The camp site is very well maintained, our bathroom was out of order but the proximity of the loop camp sites was close enough that it wasn’t an a big inconvenience.
