They cut down almost all the trees. Plan on lots of sun. Great campground though and right on the water.

Positives:
1- campsite is lake front!
2-Lots of wildlife, birds, egrets, cranes, ducks, geese, ravens, deer, etc.
3-easy to access

Could be improved:
1- while lakeside, the only way to get your watercraft in the lake is either to boat ramp or down a steep crevice right behind the campsite.
2- No shade is this site, bring your canopy
3- Road noise is apparent.

Overall, I would not book this spot again, maybe another lakeside spot.

We identified a large amount of Poison Oak and Poison Ivy in the camping area. Some of it right in the campgrounds. There was a sign warning about bears, but no sign warning about the very harmful plants. We recommend posting warning about the poison oak and poison ivy.
