The campsite #17 has the appearance of seclusion. You are not next to another campsite; you are on the corner of two campsite roads. We did not hear cars at night, and it is close to the restrooms. For little ones, it is worth the closeness of the restroom.

The site was immaculate. The restrooms were always clean. Just a short walk to the lake. Overall it was a great experience.

This campsite is perfect for the weekend. Lake is within walking distance and the restrooms are close by too. The park is well taken care of.

Loved this campground! There ARE bear boxes!! you don't need to bring your own! We were in site 20, which was listed as being very small, however, we thought it was just fine for our six person tent with space to spare. it was more secluded from some of the other sites which we liked. The facilities are nice and there are even flush toilets. It's within walking distance to the lake, the host is nice, and there are some very nice restaurants on the other side of the lake that are about a 10 minute drive away. You can buy firewood from the host (cash only) or the store right near the site entrance (they take card).

The staff is very friendly. The campsite is beautiful. Quiet. The restrooms are properly managed (clean, toilet paper available). The price of the campground is too high.
