The campground and its facilities were die an and in good shape. The real issue we had was the site we had. It was #42, it says it will fit up to a 40' vehicle. At best it can fit a 30' vehicle. I had to place several blocks under the tires and lower my tongue jack as low it would go and could still not get level. Other had the same problems.

The campground is very clean, well-kept, and quiet. The views are beautiful. We really enjoyed our stay. The only issue we had was finding out that the spot we had book could not accommodate our (35') motorhome. Spots 48, 49, and 50 are on a mound together and although 49 and 50 are big enough, the slope up to them is not navigable to motorhomes. Ranger Wade was an absolute wonder and worked miracles to find us another spot. We will definitely keep this campground in our places to visit.
As for activities, there is a beach area to swim and multiple boat launch areas. Mount Magazine is a 30 minute drive with amazing lookout views, a lodge with a restaurant and plenty of trails to hike. We also visited Cowie Wine Cellars and Vineyards, a small vineyard near Paris. They had an interesting museum of winemaking to walk through, gave wine tastings and had wine for sale.
