Decent location, decent bathrooms, no bear box. Quiet hours are not enforced though and there was a very loud group there the same night as us who were up with music and lights until 2am.

It was a great spot but I wish I had known that there was no shade at all before going there during the summer

Site 14 is absolutely not a RV site. It might have electricity but you literally park on the side of the road which makes you no where near the fire pit or picnic table. We were very disappointed when we showed up and very confused. No one in the guard shack all weekend to even assist or find us a new site.

Our trip was excellent only downfall was that the bathrooms ran out of toilet paper so we had to take napkins when we went to the bathroom but other then that it was great

Came for the first time and I would never return. Unless you have water toys to go out into the lake it’s a hard pass. Overflow is horrible, basically parking spots with white sprayed lines , neighbors directly next to you on every side , no shade , no direct access to lake and over crowded.

The space 49 location was perfect, and advertised as able to accommodate our coach, however, the rear bumper bottomed out on the entry and we couldn’t use it. We couldn’t find a ranger to discuss and the assistant ranger told us that he would be around this evening. He never came.“camp volunteer” was not able to help us. We reserves space 34 for the same timeframe, but we’re not able to get refunded for the space we couldn’t use (49).
Not pleased with not making refunds available, RIPPED OFF!!
