Nice shady spot on the water. Easy access to Antlers boat ramp. The trains at night were my only complaint but they only came through 2-3 times. We’ll be back.

We had an amazing time! Perfect weather! The camp host was awesome.. answer all of our questions.. We will definitely be back this summer.. but the only problem we had was the boats.. it was pretty hard to Kayak and be on our paddle boards. Other than that it was great!

Lots of people over the 4th of July holiday, but the camp was clean, facilities in working order, and a helpful camp host. Would stay again.
