This is a nice clean camp area. Nice swim hole. Some sites have septic. Will come back again with the kids to swim and make smores.

We were in site 32. It was a little tight but we made it work. The camp host is wonderful and the place wouldn't be the same without him. Be careful about the ants. We've never had them before and we've camped for years. We usually stay here when we get the urge to dig for diamonds at the Crater of Diamonds State Park.

The campsite was very clean everything was perfect. Beautiful view of the lake and trees. Quit and peaceful camping experience. We look forward to coming again in the summer to use the swimming beach area.
