Clean, pleasant site. The bathrooms were conveniently located and also clean (at least on the women’s side). My only complaint is that the sites are very close to each other.

This site is not ideal for a trailer, as it is a narrow turnout parallel to the road, and the only way we could make it work was to enter the road in the wrong direction to ensure our door opened into the site. Would make a great tent camping spot.

What a beautiful spot and the facilities were excellent. Location in the park was ideal for exploring and getting to the different trailheads.

Campsites are on top of each other and there are a lot of travel trailers and RVs which is a drag. The lake is wonderful and so are the bathrooms. There has to be some better control over barking dogs.
