Lovely area and great for water sports and fishing. Sites are a bit close and a sign directing campers to the upper loop would be helpful.

I stayed in site 24 with a 35 foot 5th wheel middle of sept 2020. it had good water pressure and 50 amp service. It did not have sewer hookup. sites 21 to 27 run west - east & do not have mid-day shade. they are on the road that's on the waters edge. I had 1 bar ATT service. There is a small town grocery store is available at Kirby or its about 12 miles on down hwy 27 to Murfreesboro you can find a grocery store and laundry mat there. The Diamond mine is a few miles SE of murfreesboro.
