We loved our stay here. We camped in our tent for 2 nights. I’ve had pretty cold weather, so the heated showers and bathrooms were very nice! We were on spot 11 and the view was beautiful

Right on the lake. If you are tent camping Make sure you check the wind info for the days you are there. We were getting strong gusts off the lake. That was my fault though. Good showers. 16A and most other spots had 50/30/20 amp plugs and water on site.

Site were placed nicely by the water. Bathrooms were clean and had nice hot water. Should provide opportunity to buy wood and ice year round. Be sustainable provide recycling bins.

Great home base for mountain biking. Campground right in the middle of the lake and the LOViT Trail passes right through it. Campsites right on the lake. Definitely will return.

Normally a great place to stay. Nice, clean but had a problem. Still winter time and no hot water. The hot water for showers wasn't turned on. Nothing broken just not turned on. Not a big problem in the summer but when the temps are around 40-50 a ice cold shower sucks.

Wonderful family place. Lots to do and see. Hot Springs is about 18 mi away. Beautiful place to stay.

A great campground on the lake. When all of the big campgrounds are booked, this was a nice place away. They had a playground and a little beach. The sites were pretty level and the bathrooms decent. Hot Springs was a short drive away and fairly disappointing as to things to do. The Crystal Vista hike about 25 minutes West was a hit with adults and children for digging in the dirt and finding quartz crystals.

Quiet, spacious and clean. Walking trails right from campsite which was great.
Look forward to returning for a longer stay!
