Web site listed water as an amenity, so we didn't bring much. What a mistake on your part. We also had a senior pass" America the beautiful " which we could not use. I liked the camp site, disappointed with rest.

Camp host never seen. Campsites unkept. Firepit grate was pulled out, full of old ash, had to dig out and reset grate; bathrooms were not cleaned. The boat ramp was completely blocked by drift wood, no effort made to clear; finally cleared by myself and other campers

Very nice campground. It was disappointing that we couldn’t reserve sites next to each other (every other site was first-come-first-served). Never saw the host. Another party was in our spot when we arrived, so we had to wait an hour for them to move.

Beautiful location with nice facilities. I give it 3 stars because over the weekend the camp ground was way over crowded. Multiple tents with campers per camp site. I also gave it 3 stars because the camp host wasn’t present at all during the day.

Campground is very nice and clean. It is convenient to get to the lake. Only issue we had was some campers near us made a horrible mess in bathroom. We talked to the camp host and he said it was a company that services them. I ended up cleaning it as best I could so we could use it. Our 2nd trip here, probably not our last.

Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
