The pavilion was dirty. It was not cleaned or set up nicely before we came so we did not use it to eat in. We had to clean it up before we could have our dance party. The restrooms in camp were dark and decrepit. They really need to be renovated like the restroom closest to the front. The mosquitos were really awful this year, but other than that I appreciated the camp host who cleaned up the restrooms each day. It would be a lovely location if it was renovated.

Good but the campground did not have water when we arrived. Water was turned at the end of our stay but it was not drinkable.
