Beautiful site and we had a great time camping with a preschool group! Reasons for only one star: No camp host so some other groups were loud very late at night, and the water ran out while we were there - minor inconvenience, but still odd.

Few bathroom facilities were unlocked, campground was closed when I arrived even though it was meant to be open, no water available. Didn't quite meet expectations, but went on a nice little hike up to an old cabin. I appreciated the bear boxes provided.

We love this site. We hold a tournament here every year and this year you didn't even let it rain on us.
Having the privacy of the reserved site makes it great. We enjoy the hosts and they are very nice and work hard to
keep the grounds very clean.

This is such a beautiful spot! We had reserved a group site and had it all to ourselves (poor planning) but it was absolutely delightful. Next time, we'll make sure people can join us
