The site we had was very large and on the water, beautiful and I would return to the same site. The reason for 4 rather than 5 stars was the rain pooled right in front of the 5th wheel door side and was very slow to drain.

We really liked this campground. We’ve been down the road at Modoc and loved that one. The only reason I didn’t mark excellent on this one is because the approach into the site was a little awkward with the slope and angle. Other than that, it’s a great campground.

One of the best Army Corp campgrounds.

The most beautiful campground I have ever seen. Really nice people running it. The only thing that let it down was a large party of intoxicated campers screaming obscenities at the top of their lungs until 2:30 a.m. one night. I did consider calling the police because there was violent sounding fighting going on. There needs to be some basic policing of behaviors and of the drinking rules of the park. Otherwise, very beautiful.
