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

We had to be moved to this spot due to an electrical issue with our original reserved spot. This spot overlooks the boat ramp, so every boat that launches or comes in goes by this site. However, this makes an excellent spot for people watchers. We have a toy hauler, and we were able to open the back up and sit on the "deck" overlooking the water. We waived at people going by. The site is a bit small for large campers (ours is 28'), and we just barely parked our 2 vehicles side by side in front of the camper. We were able to park our bass boat on the side, but it was tight. This is a popular spot that we have not had the opportunity to reserve, so this chance allowed us to confirm that we would enjoy this spot and will try to book it if we can.

We really like this spot. It is very close to the bathrooms. It has spacious parking for guests or watercraft. Across the roadway is a huge open area that leads down to the water, and behind the bathrooms. Great place to walk your pet. Also a good place to pull up a boat instead of taking it in and out. Only trouble is you have traffic on both ends since it is in the middle of the loop.
