Was hoping for a shower. Maybe that was asking too much. However, biggest issue was that the entire lake was supposedly not fit for swimming because of chemicals in the water. That info needs to be posted when people make a reservation. I was hoping to standup paddle board and swim. I would not have stayed at this location if I had known in advance that those activities were banned or not recommended. Also, there was a pretty serious fire nearby, but there appeared to be no camp host to provide possible evacuation notice. Fortunately, it appeared to be put out. Other than that, the campsite was clean and nicely arranged.
