Many visitors enjoyed the shaded areas and proximity to the water, with some planning to return annually.

Clean sites, clean bathroom. Used the app when arrived to reserve.
Has picnic tables, water sources, bear trashcans, fire pits, paved parking spot, soft spot for tent. It is close to the road but it's not loud there is a good amout of trees

This campground is an absolute mess. The whole place looks like it was abandoned a year ago. The road and camping spaces are littered with branches and pine needles. The trees lining the road haven't been trimmed and made contact with the RV. There are piles of branches and debris that need to be hauled out. There were broken beer bottles in the fire pits. Truly sad as this could be a beautiful place.

We stayed overnight on our way to another destination. We stayed in our travel trailer. The site was easily accessible and had enough length that we didn't have to unhitch. There was hardly anyone there which made our stay private. We were there in late July and were blessed with an overnight drop in temps.

A quiet, pretty spot right on the "lake". The lake level is way down, so hopefully this will change in the future...
Lots of trees, shade and easily accessed off I-5, but it's quiet.

Couldn’t make the stay but the website wouldn’t allow a cancellation. Poor customer service.

Camp host is super nice. Our Class A isn't a good fit for this location; pads not level. Saturday night music from a club or party was super loud till 11pm. Lower but still loud till midnight. Park filled with lots of younger adults. Great if you are into boating, otherwise, not much here. Drove 15 miles for dinner.
