Nice, helpful stop in for daily patrols. Seem like facilities are check and cleaned on a weekly basis by contractors. This particular spot seemed ideal for me with bathroom and water within easy reach, and a quiet setting

It was very quiet, I got there a little early but the ranger was very nice and let me stay in my space because it hadn’t been occupied the night before. There is a nice walk from the campground to the lake.

Pros:
Free showers, clean sites, and water access were close by.
Cons:
Fire ring’s grill/grate falling apart a little, water pressure was really low, and the men’s restroom lock mechanism was missing (good thing someone brought in a twig).
