Campground and restrooms are always clean. They have cut down a lot of trees since we were there last year. That was a surprise but still perfect.

This is a very nice campground. Wish it had cell phone and internet service. Not needed for streaming or emails. More and more people depend on this for emergencies with family or alarm companies.

This place is great. Much to do on the lake, and the camp store has everything one could possibly want. Will return again this year before they close for the season.
