Not much there - the lake is low _ so no water access, but plenty of mosquitos at night. the campground is nothing to write home about, just boring - never saw any evidence of a camp host. Drive an other 20 min and stay in a “nice place”

Really beautiful location, campsites are clean, large and not right on top of your neighbor. I enjoyed my stay here.

This location is beautiful! However- it gets very windy and hot!! The afternoon wind took out and destroyed our canopy which made for a miserably hot stay, as there are no trees for shade. As an experienced camper- this place seems ideal for someone passing through with an RV or camper to rest for a night. I couldn’t imagine staying longer than a night or two. We left a day early due to the lack of shade and the overbearing heat.

No creek, no notice boat ramp is closed and no access to water for boat or kayak as the water table is extremely lacking. Barren, no shade; basically a parking lot with numbers for spots. Very misleading name and additional oncoming 65mph wind storm storm made it unsafe to utilize even for an hour. This was to date the worse quality location I’ve visited if u r someone who enjoys camping. Terrible construction delays coming from the west allows limited vehicle access 8-9am, 12-1pm and 5-6pm. A huge waste of time that I understand will continue for 2 more years.

no shade. Lots of bugs, road noise. If you are looking for a place to stop for the night this is the place for you.
