I took my grandson camping and we both loved it there. We loved it so much that we have another scheduled visit at the end of this month. The lake is absolutely gorgeous and the shade made sitting outside very nice

I understand the problems with COVID19 but there is no supervision of the campground. The TT next to us had 5 or 6 dogs tied up to trees in their site during the hot days and nights. for days. The dogs barked during the night and the smell became bad. Changes and notices are typed on 8X10 sheets of paper in small print so its hard to see unless you get out of your vehicle and walk up to the window. With the major changes going on in the parks, it would be nice if they were posted somewhere on the website.

Pros: It was quiet. It was peaceful. Other than the "beach" it was well maintained.
Cons: The "swim area" was neglected and fairly toxic. Constantly watched people stroll right through our's and other people's campsite.
