The bathrooms are so awful. I don't understand why there isn't funding, and I would like to know who I could write to yell about this.

I had site #44 and it was great . Had a heavy rain storm and the site drained very well , close to both comfort stations . Wish they could update the comfort stations a little bit but they were still acceptable .

Lake water was way down again. Seems they are draining the lake to work on the dam every time we come visit.

This is a beautiful park with tons of nature. Be sure to make sure that the site has 30 amp or 50 amp and there is no sewer hookups. Pump station only. No cable or antenna tv (well 4 channels.) Big rig not so friendly as it looks like most of the RV slabs are extremely skinny and some are super hard to get parked into. Overall if you are there for nature than this is the place but if your glamping then just call ahead to make sure you get what you need.

Very nice park and an interesting lake. I arrived as the fall "Draining" process was in effect. Spoke with some of the locals who have seen this in the past toward the end of the Summer Season. I think about 20 ft of beach became visible during my stay. Great place to have an E-Bike and for the first several days of my stay that is all I did. Rode through almost all of the roads of the campground. Another nice thing was the washer and dryer I found in one of the restroom locations. Coin operated and seemed to be quite new.

We were just there overnight. Lovely park. Nice large site with shade. The lake was very, very low, but we could see a little of it from our site higher up. Quiet. Relaxing. Be a nice place to spend a couple of days.
