A very beautiful spot to camp. I wish i would have reserved sooner to get a different spot because there was not enough space for our set up due to our site being extremely close to the neighbors. Not a far walk to the bathrooms for most campsites. Will reserve this place again to camp!

We drove 3 hours to camp here and spend time at the crystal mines which were about 40 minutes from the campgrounds. Beautiful campground, the kids loved the swimming area, it was a nice sandy beach. Bathrooms and showers were nice and kept very clean. Only thing I didn't like was how closely packed the campsites were. We camped in a tent and had no area outside where the tent and car were, when we camp we typically like to bring yard activities there was no grass area at our site to play in. Otherwise very nice campground.

This is a beautiful campground with lots of campsites on the lake shore. The facilities are kept clean and the showers are really nice. There is a great area designated for swimming, including a sandy beach and playground equipment. My kids spent many hours playing here.

We were unable to stay in the campsite we reserved. The site had been washed out and had no electricity. The campground seem to be falling apart. And the bathrooms even though they were cleaned every morning the showers drains were clogged ,so if you showered you had to stand in dirty water.
