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.

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.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. The site we had reserved was not optimal for our rig. They were happy to accomodate us with suggestions for other sites that were available. The campground is well maintained, with excellent views. It's definitely on our list for a return visit when next we're in the area.
