the bathrooms need to be cleaner better. There's dirt in the corners and cobweb on the walls and parts of the ceiling. There was a tree down on the trail around the lake, it would be nice to get it cut down.

The camp hosts are excellent. They engage with all campers and keep a close eye on the campground. Since it is a remote location they make it safe. Bath house facilities kept clean. We had Site 1 with beautiful view of lake.

Off the beaten path, quiet for a campground, and very well maintained. Hosts were all great to talk to, and treat the guests very well. I will be back as soon as I can! Awesome place to stay during hunting season with the hunt camps all full, and dispersed sites not allowed in the forest.
