The bathroom was very clean! Everyone was very nice & friendly! Our campsite had quite a slope. This was our very first time to camp in our new trailer, and we struggled to make it level given the site’s slope.

Had a little trouble finding our campsite because we weren’t looking on both sides of the road, only the lake side. Also we weren’t sure if we were in section C or not because there was nothing marking it to indicate that we were. No one was at the little shelter to ask. After we got settled in our site our stay was really nice. If you have kayaks, make sure to bring them. Great price, great place, and great time. Thank you Recreation.gov
