We camped at site #18. We were next to the playground. That’s not usually a problem. But this weekend there was a wedding and a fish fry going on. The kids were not being supervised very well. The volume of noise was so high. Kids were on electric scooters & electric bikes & I was so worried someone was going to get hurt. It was nerve wracking.
We vowed to avoid weekends.

Grounds were nice and clean, the lake was just across the street with stairs leading access to sit near the water and watch the sunset (my favorite part), shower houses are AMAZING. Very family friendly

Loved it here. So quiet and serene, all the other campers were friendly, but I was after solitude and I got it.
