Beautiful location next to the lake, felt private because of all the trees, very well managed and the most helpful and kind staff

Even though the weather was brisk / cold, the campground was as nice as ever. We camp here and attend the Oktoberfest activities close by each fall. The camp store was closed for the season and there was no firewood available onsite, which was unfortunate. Notice on the website would have been nice. Everything is maintained and clean i.e. campsites, bathrooms & showers. We'll definitely be back.
