One of my favorite campgrounds when heading west. Always great hosts. The bathrooms are always being redone or something, but it doesn't cause any problems.

This campground is very well maintained. Site number 11 needs some kind of lake access to be perfect. Very shady spot.

The camp hosts were very friendly. The park has cleared some trees and undergrowth especially around the bathhouse and walkway paths making less spooky and nice to travel through. Two new camp hosts sites making them a little more central and spaced around in the campground. The only big issue we had this time was people not picking up after their dogs. We have three mini schaunzers which we picked up after each and every time.
Wish people would be more respectful and not ruin it for others. No one wants to step in poo or have their pets get hookworms or any other kind of issues from lazy pet owners.
30’ TT - site has a downhill slope at the entrance. The site itself is approx 5 1/2 “ lower (out of level) on the passenger side/lake side. It was also out of whack front to back. Manageable if you have plenty of stackers to even things out. Overall - nice site.
Fire pit-picnic table and grill area are on a lower level (6/7 crosstie steps lower) than the upper campsite area. Worked ok for us- might not be so great if you have little ones.
T mobile / Verizon both were 2-3 bars. T mobile kinda faded in an out - but somewhat reliable with 5g hotspot. Cell coverage seemed to be about the same all over the park.
Other than the pet owners who are to disrespectful to clean up after their dogs (mostly large breed dog piles) it was fairly quiet and peaceful. Did not use the bath facilities- so can’t comment on those. We raked up and burned pine cones picked up some minor trash- bottle caps/few cig butts- and blew the steps/picnic area off. Leave it cleaner than you found it is our motto. Maybe someday everyone will!

Campsite #12 was clean and allows a reasonable amount of privacy. Nice grounds to walk around and explore. The lake is beautiful!
