Our campsite was #102, one of the picnic benches should be replaced, it's horrible and will cause harm.

I stayed 2 nights 3 days and has a blast ALONE!!! Just me few neighbors for a day the nature and my catfish I caught my last day around 730 am. Barely any shaded areas in this camp site but amazing views water was amazing to cool off. Every campsite has bbq ring not to sure about the bathroom because I have my own bathroom tent. Very convenient. Does get hot around 12-5pm FYI

Nice campground. Well maintained. Only complaint is the need for security drive by in the evenings to control day campers utilizing the campground late into the night.

You don't need to think about the places they offer, they just have to plan an exit from the city, leave the stress behind and live the experience
