We had spot 13, it's a little harder to get into than it looks. Very nice spot once you do get in it. Water and 30 amp electric, fire ring and covered picnic table. We had a little cell phone service, our friends in spot 15 had no service. Close to the playground, grandkids had a ball.

The lake is a nice small lake. The campground is well maintained and all sites are above the lake with access to lake by two launch areas. We were in site #11 which is a little unlevel but shaded. Bathhouse is not cleaned well.

We did visit several other COE campgrounds on the lake - Quarry Cove is the nicest. No sites have direct access to the water, but most are shaded. Sites have some separation and are staggered which makes the site feel larger. The bathrooms are not cleaned well, and the showers are an odd, almost unusable configuration.

You can pull your boat up on the shore by the boat ramp is you want to leave it overnight.
