We were told when checking in on Monday the 31’st to be gone by Thursday but, I paid for 4 nights ? Then the host and his wife talked bad about us to the people across from us then as we were leaving he stopped us and herrassed us - my new wife my handicapped son and my new 70 year old mother inlaw - it was awful .

Stayed 14 days in May 2021. Beautiful setting. Friendly hosts and other visitors. Very limited, if any, cell coverage and having the showers opened would have been nice. Other than that, we'll be back!

Great campground many sites have full hookups. The plus is the campground hosts very friendly and helpful. Lots of fishing options , shore or boat rental. Very good experience

My site was clean. On the whole it was quite. The only thing that could have made it better was if they had some kind of dust control. Now if you can just do something about the wind. (just kidding)
