We got a decent amount of rain through the weekend but the stay was amazing. Camp Hosts were very kind and welcoming and the kids had a lot of fun playing by the lake.

Nicely spaced sites, beautiful area. We had great hosts that really kept the restrooms and sites very clean. Our site was near the end of a one way loop. The site was angled the opposite way it should have been, which required entering the loop the wrong way (fortunately for only about 100’) in order to back our trailer in. I noticed a few other sites that were also this way.
