Upon arrival, we were greeted by the campground host. He gave us a map and explained the lay out of the campground. The sites are paved ,level asphalt pads and spread out. Electric and water are at each site.Many sites are right up against the lake. Restroom facilities were nice and very clean.I would definitely return when traveling through this area. Army Corp of Engineer campground are the best!

Everything we dreamt about in camping. But what made us absolutely love this place was the camp host. Stan reeder. the kindest, most attentive, diligent host we ever had the pleasure to meet. Restrooms were the cleanest weve seen since we started camping at coes. 2017 Nice paint. Nice shower. Perfect. We extended our stay just to enjoy Stans hospitality and his wonderful park.
Walmart is about 20 mi away. Dollar general is 6 mi away. Its a dry county so BYOB.

Off the beaten path, but what a gem! Sunsets were beautiful, the handicapped bathrooms for Sites 1-24 were large and clean. Park Attendant Stan was absolutely wonderful & helpful, working with us to move from Site 24 (BEAUTIFUL but no shade cover) to Site 25 (full shade). A basketball hoop and Disc Golf are available if you aren’t a fisherman (the alligators seemed to have frightened the fish away from the pier while trying to fish).

Very nice campground with the nicest, most knowledgeable host I've ever met. The only negative was the bathrooms were not kept very clean.

This is a beautiful park. It is back in the woods but beautiful views of the lake. The camp hosts are very nice and very helpful. We were in site 42 beautiful views and always a breeze blowing. We were there at a bad time of year for the first hatching of mayflies. The mayflies were pretty bad, and you couldn't really sit outside. We noticed that they were not to bad at sites that were in away from the water. I would stay here again if in the area. Very peaceful, not busy at all when we were there.
