We love it here. It is our fave place to camp! It's so peaceful and family oriented and I always feel safe. We do wish there was soap in the bathrooms as well as possibly a washer and dryer to use for longer trips at the bathhouse. We have a family of 4 and packing enough clothes for longer trips and to allow for them needing extra change of clothes can be hard. We love that there really isn't a "bad" camp site, with almost all spots being on the water and most having water access right off your site! It's so nice especially with kids! We camp here at least 2 times a year and will continue to come back!

Beautiful campground! We loved our stay. Bathroom was very dated. They need to turn on the cold water before someone ends up with a severe burn. The hot water is extremely hot. When you turn on the cold you only get a light flow. Made it very hard to take a shower. But other than that we had a great time.
