I absolutely loved the camp sight and best of all, I loved meeting your Volunteer Debbie! She was thoughtful, caring, and helpful!
I DID NOT enjoy the lingering odor of the dump station, which I had to pass numerous times on my walks in, and out, of the camp sight.

We love visiting COE’s and our State Parks. We’ve been to our other two COE’s, so we had to visit this one too. The sites are a great size. We had a great view watching the water. We had a big cypress tree behind us where we put our chairs and sat under all day. There’s not much to do except relax while there. The bath houses were clean.
