Love the campground, but we wait all year to come and use the lake. Planned our vacation, came down, and to our disbelief and sadness, they closed the lake for the whole week. Without any notice so we couldn't even cancel in time. Not good.

This is a great campground. The sites are private and it is not crowded at all. It was quiet despite being completely full. The bathrooms were clean. We were traveling with a 2 year old and infant. The playground was impressive for a campground with multiple large slides, various climbing options, and a swing set. The staff was very accommodating. Check in was fast and easy.

Easy check-in; friendly, informative volunteers who keep the sites beautifully maintained, even raked! The sites are long, wide and well shaded. The campground is in a quiet area but not too far from retail stores if needed. I took off one star for the sketchy dump station which does not have a sealed connection. Just drop your hose in front of the inlet and let 'er rip. The immediate area around the inlet showed evidence of a recent hazardous spill which supports my shock that this setup is allowed anywhere. Even if the state doesn't require a sealed connection, it should be done anyway.
