The location was beautifully situated with access to Blue Mountain Lake on both sides of the campsite. The swimming location had a nice beach with sand and wasn't too crowded. The shower facility were clean along with the rest of the camp area.
Some watch outs for future campers that we learned the hard way...1) Be sure to have 50+ feet of water hose for your connections. The water spigot was shared between camp sites and much further away than other sites I have been too. The same goes for the electric. Our initial spot #14 had the electric outlet too far away for us to reach with our trailer connection. We could have used our extension cord but we forgot our adapter.
That being said, we had so many things not going our way but the one saving grace was the great park ranger who saved the day and let us change campsites so we could have water and power. He was prompt, friendly and a life saver.
I noticed the camp sites in some areas were too close to your neighbors and some areas were louder than others with people partying. To each their own but something to note.
Over all I would stay here again because of overall location on Blue Mountain Lake.

We were the only camper in this park. The water was very low so not very many fishing either. We had a nice peaceful time.
