Not happy with the fact that the Host is Volunteering now and they only work W-Sun. The camp ground looked nice, the grass had just been mowed. The bathrooms are always clean. Except for someone cleaned there dog In the family shower and left it an absolute mess, hair and mud everywhere. All in all we still love this camp ground.

Brian is great and the campsites are decent. However, the shower house is in pretty bad shape. It’s time for a rebuild.

Was just perfect. The view and the host Brian was so nice and helpful. The bathrooms were super clean and air conditioned which was so nice.

Nice park but several of the sites, even many that are close to the water, are set up so that the camper is facing away from the water rather than towards it.

The bathrooms with showers are in need of repair. The women's shower does not drain properly. The plumbing is bad. The bathrooms were not maintained. The bathrooms need to be updated. The park in general is not maintained very well. We do not recommend the park. We've stayed there before, but the condition has deteriorated.
