We had a good experience at this campground. The staff is great and the surroundings are gorgeous. There were three issues that detracted from our weeklong stay. The campsites are very unlevel and the camper pads are in horrible condition. Getting leveled up was quite a chore. Unlike what the campground description says cellular coverage is spotty at best and we had all three major carriers in our group. Lastly the shower house was one of the nicest and cleanest I’ve seen. If only there had actually been hot water to shower with it would have been great.

Great camp host, very kind and informative. Beautiful scenery and clean spaces. Restrooms were well maintained and accessible. Camping sites were nice and easy to get in and out of. Stayed in White Oak braked up time the lake and loved the view. We will certainly be back for another trip; though I hear the weekends can get crowded.

This is by FAR the cleanest and best maintained campground we visit. The people that clean the shower house do a fantastic job. There are many sites that are easy to level on and the spacing between them is good.
