Rangers and staff were racist we were the only group of Latino I felt very discriminated. Will not come back here ever and will not recommend.

Over half of the bathrooms were out of order and the others were disgusting; park rangers were not happy people and came off as uncaring and mean. The roads are lined with large rocks which make it a real challenge to back a camper into a site.
This site is on my list to never go to again

We had a great experience at this camping site. We reserved 3 sites all next to each other. There was a volleyball court right across and also horseshoe area. The kids enjoyed the lake! They also have loaner life jackets! Great idea! We’ll definitely camp here again!

We stayed two nights. The campsite wasn’t crowded the first night and it was very warm! (End of June) Second night was very windy and became a little more crowded as could be expected (we stayed a Wednesday and Thursday night. Camping neighbors were amazing people! Bring extra tent stakes, firewood and sunscreen and it’s a great time! We even did it with a 6 week old baby!

On the good part the price is great, free dump station and shower is free, on the bad side bathrooms are really dirty and shower was plugged up, and half the bathrooms are closed so you have to walk a mile or more to get to a bathroom that is open. There is host there but they don't clean or take care of it.
