On site 8 with a great view of the lake. Some sites a little close together but overall nicely spaced. Obvious that improvements to the sites have been done recently. Very nice 4 mile trail around the lake as well as a 6 mile bike loop. Bathhouses were satisfactory and clean, though partially closed at random times. Never saw the camp host while we were there. Rangers did drive through regularly. Would happily return.

This is a nice spot. We were met by the camp host Lois, and given a welcome and review of rules, etc. Clean and quiet.

Campground hosts were great. Nice setting on small lake. Worst part was the road to the campground and the distance to get to any type of store. Bathrooms were well maintained and the sites are spacious. Nice Park. We stayed in a travel trailer.

Of the 10 sites in the campground, there were 4 with power/water. Potable water is available for all campers near the bath house. Bath houses were kept clean. The lake is nice, with a 1.2 mile trail that encircles it. The hosts on site were very hospitable and welcoming, but not overbearing. We were welcomed in and enjoyed the stay.
