We had plenty of fun on this cove campground. Fairly private and campers are generally great. Had a noisy neighbor on a jet ski show up our last night which was a bummer. Family oriented area. We were there Thurs -Sun and had lots of fun exploring on our inflatable kayak. You wouldn't know how close it is to Walmart! Quiet location , great showers. We recommend. Bring your camp wood.

This campground is among the worst we have ever visited. We had a water side site, but there wasn’t much of a view. The sites are very close with no vegetation or trees for buffer. The bath houses were only fair. Our gravel patio area was full of dog poop. We had to clean some of it up just to be able to sit outside. I would not stay here again.
