What Guests Are Saying

Lake Campground offers a pleasant camping experience with clean facilities and friendly staff. Campsite 006 is highly recommended due to its elevated position and proximity to the lake, which is just a short walk away. However, campsites 005 and others near the restroom face issues with odor and noise, making them less desirable.

Love this campground.. large enough that you dont feel like you invading other people's campsites but small enough that no matter which side of the campground you are at it's only a small walk to the lake.
