Absolutely love the campground. It’s always so nice and clean. The host are the most awesome people. The Rangers that come around are absolutely wonderful. Can’t wait to go back again.

The campgrounds were relatively quiet and most areas had shade. The lake was only around 10% capacity so that limited the activity that we could do. The camp hosts were friendly enough. There were some minor renovations happening but nothing too off putting that was inconvenient to us.

Campground was nice. Good amount of distance between other campers. Bathroom was out of service near my campsite but porta potties were provided. It made going to the bathroom uncomfortable. Very quiet at night. There was also cell reception for Verizon. The staff was friendly.
