We departed 2 days early and called and spoke to the ranger. They said a refund would be issues but I have yet to see the refund on my card.

Love this campground but found the restrooms and showers to not be as clean as they have been in the past. The fire pit also looked as it had not been cleaned out in quite a while.

The campground was absolutely beautiful. I grew up on Table Rock Lake but this is my new favorite lake. I loved how the bathrooms/showers had real running and hot water and didn't stink to high heaven like most campgrounds. Will 100% be back. Quiet and peaceful and everything you could want.
