The people at check-in were knowledgeable and helpful. The campground was beautiful and clean. The campsite was large and easy to enter, even with a 40 ft motorhome. The signage throughout the campground was excellent, and the supplied directions were great.
I stayed there while attending a storytelling event at Lagrange College. The park employees even made it easy for me to return to my site after the park was closed so I did not miss any of the activities in Lagrange.
The only downside was that the lake looked like a mud puddle. I understand that it had to do with the weather and the time of year. I lived there before the dam was built, and I never want another flood like the one I experienced when West Point was underwater. For this reason, I was pleased to see the water down and the lake ready for the rainy season.
I had to leave early, and after I returned home, I noticed that they had even returned part of my charges. This was another unexpected happy-making event.
Please keep up the great work. I could not have had a more pleasant experience. I will be back.

Beautiful campground, we were in 71-which has a wooden deck overlooking the lake and a sitting area downstairs with a fire pit. There were numerous hiking trails. We will definitely return.

Our stay was very nice with three exceptions. First, a previous camper had burned old lumber, that had hardware attached, in the fire pit. Whoever cleaned out the fire pit left screws, nails and lag bolts laying around with some strewn out into the grass. Second, one of the attendants tried to restrict me from using my choice of a mobility devise because it did not fit her stereotypical power chair appearance. The attendants should be trained on this topic. Third, the rule of not putting pet pens on the hard-packed/paved areas needs to be rescinded. Campers who put up pins because they care for their pets. They won't allow feces to accumulate because of health reasons. One attendant stated they needed to be in the grassy areas because some people put up tents and they on the hard-packed/paved areas. If this is a true reason, how will the COE manages the feces left behind by the wildlife, especially the Geese?
