Nice clean campsites, close 1/4 mi walk to get to the lake. Verizon Cell phone coverage was not the best.

The campgrounds were great, clean. The only downside is that two of the restrooms were closed, in the area of are spot. I think we should get some kind of refund for this problem.

Nice campground. There are (2) flush toilets and some vault pit toilets. 1 flush toilet was not working and the other was disgustingly dirty! The sink looked like it had not been wiped down in weeks, if not months. Paper waste on the floor- every day! Then the toilets got clogged. We told the camp host and you could tell that he did not care. We were there for 3 nights after we told the host about the issue and it was never cleaned. It was the worst restroom I have ever seen at a campsite- and I have been camping and RVing for many years.

It was nice. It will not be the best for everyone, but you have to experience it to know where it fits in your life. Our loops bathrooms were closed, but notnreally a huge deal in our situation. It was fun, it seemed clean, very quiet. Good little spot.
