Wonderful experience! We had an amazing, quiet time during the week (in July!). People flooded in on Friday and the activity at the lake picked up a LOT on the weekend, as expected. Remember to take your kayaks and paddle boards for a fun time on the lake. The hosts were wonderful. Love this campground!

Huge campground with many loops. We were lucky to have a spot right on the river. Felt private with easy access to the clean restroom and water source.
The reservoir was beautiful! Limited access to the shore unless you are staying at one of the campsites right there so go early to snag access.

Convenient shady site, as well as located near many hiking trails. Quiet and cozy location that I plan on visiting again. Small bodies of water lay within short drives and walks from camp.

Many of the sites are shaded and private. So sad that they put more sites along the hill by the lake; makes this area very crowded with dogs off leash and little space for day use or pedestrians.

Great sites and beautiful area. The mosquitos get bad but well worth it. Be sure to bring everything you need since it is about an hour's drive back to town.
