Campground is well maintained, EXCEPT RESTROOMS. We arrived on a Monday and left on Friday morning. A repair was made to one of the men's showers, but that was the only service worker seen. The floors were not swept or moped, nor the showers cleaned once. The shower curtains did not fit. One too long, one not wide enough. All the walls and floor needs a good pressure washing.
These details will not prevent us from returning. No other complaints.

There were many issues this time that made our stay less than enjoyable. This is an annual trip that we plan every year for my son’s birthday. This year he turned 10. Our group included two campers of grandparents and two families with small children. None of our campsites had been mowed in quite some time. Knee high grass on most of the campground and poison oak everywhere. I understand it’s camping but when you have toddlers, you pay for a campsite in hopes that it is maintained properly. The bath houses were gross. Not once in our almost two week stay did they even smell like any form of cleaner had been used. I never even used the shower because they were gross and because one of the hosts after telling me it was good to go, still came back in the bathroom while I was in there. Male in a female bathroom knowing he had just allowed me in. The hosts basically made continuous laps through the campground harassing people. I was even followed one night from the bath house to my site, to the point he had to turn his headlights off so that I could see to back in, he was literally sitting parked outside the bathroom. My site tags clearly displayed in my windshield, so why he did this I’m still not sure. They were enforcing “rules” not posted anywhere. For example, we had two boats in our group. We go to the boat ramp, one car parks in the car parking, we all go out. They harassed that person saying they save those spots for handicap, they are not marked handicap and there is no signage saying anything or the sort. We actually ended up checking out a day early because we e were just over it. There are no longer any washing machines or dryers there either. Some of our party was there for nearly two weeks, so that complicated things further. We were not some huge party crowd acting crazy or doing anything to cause such harassment. We will not be back. This campground seriously needs an overhaul management and maintenance.

This is a great experience. The staff was attentive. We saw the park host often as they drove around and checked on everyone. This is an awesome campground highly recommended

Bring your ant poison and your lawn mower. Oh and a bathing suit you don't mind wearing in not so clear water. People working here are super nice. Overall good place, especially for paddling.

Awful place. Very nasty. Not good upkeep. Police activity is ridiculous. Not safe for our kids. Fighting drugs people going to jail people running from the law it’s crazy here. DO NOT GO HERE FOR ANYTHING!!!
