Bathrooms needed cleaning and repairs. Site #5 was level but short with very little shade. Noisy neighbors most of the weekend but did observe quiet hours. Rest of the week was very peaceful.

Loved the leveled areas around the firepit/picnic table overlooking the lake. However, the pull through parking pad provided a challenge in leveling the trailer.

I have a 32 ft trailer and the pull-thru site took a bit of work to get us set up in a decent spot since the site is curved.
The driveway edge was also higher than the rest of the campsite so our steps had quite a large drop at the bottom step which was difficult to manage. The water was just a short walk down the hill from the campsite and there was a mown pathway that led down there which was appreciated. It was a bit steep though and my sun took a tumble headfirst and wound up with a scraped up face so be careful walking down to the water.
The weekend we were these was RIDICULOUSLY windy! All the other campers surrounding us left after 1 night of heavy winds and I don't blame them.
The view was absolutely gorgeous and the campground was nice and quiet since it was pretty empty. I would come back again and hope for calmer weather next time.
We have AT&T cell service and the service was very spotty. We didn't have service most of the time we were there. Out on the boat launch parking area cell service was great though, so go there if you need to.

Spacious site for a large tent, clean bathrooms, and very quiet when we went (off-season in early March).

we would never come back again, camp place was too small, too dusty, it says on the site that you can buy some fire woods there , we even called and they confirmed but when we were there there's none available.
