Super relaxing. Shaded but bring a shade to the beach area. Very kid friendly. They were able to ride their bikes and the cars were courteous. I loved how we had a quiet time at 10pm. Jim was amazingly helpful.

This was my second time camping here. Host were very helpful when we had a problem. Everything is well taken care of. Just wish there was more showers for the weekend because you have to wait in line a long time to use it. Looking forward to my next camping trip.

Outstanding park and the Ranger’s go above an beyond. Needed fuel for my truck after the pull up the hill sucked it down. Ranger brought fuel and I enjoyed chatting. Great sites and great hosts!
He would remember me as the white Dodge with Hail dents all over one side!.lol

Campsite was set up backwards. #10. Table, grill and fire pit were all behind the camper. Very inconvenient. No WiFi whatsoever so no texting or phone calls unless you drive back to town.
The campgrounds are perfect for those with children. There is a swimming area marked off for them.
The park rangers were very nice and helpful and the people at the check in and out were super nice.
If you are addicted to your phone like I am, you might want to keep your visits short. Lol
