We were locked in overnight with chains and padlocks even though we told the director that we were hunting early. When we went to wake someone up to unlock the gate it was like we were not wanted there. Imagine if there was an emergency and nobody could get out of the campground? Very unprofessional.

The road to the park really needs some work. Our 40 ft RV had a tough time getting into the park. But, once we were there it was beautiful.

If you're looking for a quite get away this is the spot. Amenities are minimal but acceptable, the sites are few, the lake is clear and the staff are helpful and friendly.
