Fall/Winter is a perfect time of the year to camp at this beautiful lake. The trails are excellent and the entire area is well maintained.

Bathrooms need a lot of attention. They need to be cleaned more frequently and kept in useable order.

There is a wind chill at night and being right next to the water also makes it a tad bit chillier so keep that in mind.

Very nice place, level camp spots, clean bathrooms. The sites are well marked, but very hard to locate in the dark (that's my only complaint).
