The site was beautiful and easily accessible. The camp hosts were very welcoming and friendly! Be sure to pack lots of bug spray as the mosquitoes are especially bad at night. Restrooms were well kept. We had a great time and are excited to visit again!

The camp was very well kept and the camp hosts were VERY helpful and friendly. BUT, the restrooms were UNBEARABLE, the stink was more then one could stand even for just a few minutes, not even long enough to use the facility. Although the inside of the restroom was clean and there was always toilet paper, the odor from the toilet was the worse I have ever experienced in any of the State Facilities I have visited.

The camp sites are just wonderful. Wide, private, just wonderful. The "F" part is the out houses. I don't know when they are ever emptied and they smell so bad we cannot use them. The camp hosts work to keep the area clean, but when they are full of human waste, there isn't much they can do.
