Loved being secluded from the whole large campground in this little group of 5 camping spots that you have to walk to. It made the noise of generators and the RVs in general a lot less and the sounds of birds and the water more available. Got a bit lost finding the right spot because I didn't note which loop T17 was on but a camp host directed me to the correct location. Excited to stay again in the future just for the view and relaxation as there wasn't much to do nearby without a boat.

The campsite was awesome and there was plenty of room for my truck, boat, and 27' camp trailer.

I think this campground is the best of both dry camping and camping with hook ups. I absolutely love the views and all the area has to offer. We will be back again!

A special thank you to our camp host Claudia. We had reserved a site with a lake view that looked great on the website but left us a little exposed to the road with our pop up tent trailer. Claudia helped us find a better spot and checked in with us each day to make sure we were ok and coordinated with the ranger service to make sure our stay was great. Thank you so much Claudia! You are the best!
