The host were great!!! Campground isn't as well maintained as I remember a couple of years ago. This is probably due to not having any volunteers. Duckett Mill COE winch is VERY close by didnt open this summer due to staffing. We highly recommend this campground.

This was my favorite local campground that I stay at a few times an every year. They used to keep this place very nice. I drove through over a month before to scout out which site I wanted to reserve beforehand. The grounds were very overgrown and not kept up. The grass was over waist high. When me and my 2 children came back to stay 3 nights, the grounds were the same if not worse. They only cut the grass around the borders. The only place for the children to play is the pavement and the lake area. There are no swings. They have really let this place go. It isn’t being properly maintained like it used to.

Had to move from campsite. They scheduled to cut the trees I complained about last year( dead). I sent them an email on our previous visit when we stayed in same spot. This work should have been completed in off season. Grass is not mowed, site we were given was full of fire ants. We should have been notified that we were moving prior to arriving at gate and given the option to move or cancel at no charge. Site we were given was dirty and not cleaned.(53) Sewer smells at site 94 were strong from dump station. No trash can in men’s bathhouse. Current contractor is not doing a good job to maintain.

Nice campground on a beautiful lake. If you have not stayed there for a few years be aware that the grass is not mowed except in certain areas, the bath houses still need to be updated and several camp spots have dead trees. Our last trip was good, campground was quite and the host are very nice.
