Beautiful campsites with level parking spots. The bathrooms were a bit gross but pretty standard for campsites. The only downside for me was the location / isolation. It’s very off the beaten path and I wouldn’t feel safe as a single woman staying there. Others likely feel differently!

The campground itself is pleasant. It was unfortunate that we had terrible camp neighbors who completely disregarded the posted "Quiet Hours" of after 10pm. We would have reported it except that we never once saw a park employee during our visit.

Honestly for the price it’s not terrible it’s just we had a really bad experience.if you aren’t super into bugs maybe go to a different place. The bathroom were really not maintained or clean. No hand soap, Bugs were all over the wall and over sinks and toilets. And at night the bottom of campground is full of cockroaches. I don’t know if it’s a common problem. But because of that we had to leave the same day to not risk getting it in our trailer.
If you have a small trailer it should be fine like 13 ft. Bigger than that it will be difficult to move around in this campground.
Other than that beautiful place. Sunrise is gorgeous and the lake would be wonderful if didn’t have the cockroaches.
