We stayed at site 3. Great view of the mountain and lake. Boat launch is down below but wasn’t any bother. We stayed in a motorhome 27in long and fit with space to put our vehicle behind it. We walked in the morning to see the sunrise by the lake. The sunset was amazing as well. The bathroom facilities were clean and upkept. It was a shirt walk from our site. Overall this campground is quiet, clean, and beautiful! Our family will definitely be back and stay a little longer.
