Campground is older and on the small side. It's not laid out well and hard to navigate. It's also right beside the interstate and there's a fair amount of road noise. The bathhouse is very sketchy, felt dirty, and no matter what I did I could not keep my things dry.

Do not ever stay here in a tent, lot 53. I could not sleep at all. The cars on the busy road were right next to us. Basically felt like we broke down on the road and had a tent and slept on the highway. Also, across the street is a house where their kids were up till 2am playing basketball. So you could hear the dribbling. Just if you stay here do not stay anywhere close to the major street in a tent. Other than that it’s a fine park.

As always, we love it here. Sites 21 and 22 are great lakeside sites. The site was clean and ready for set up when we arrived. One set of hosts were really great! But always a great place to be!
