We love fall camping here! Pelicans were in full swing, sunsets were gorgeous, campfires, toasty. The campsite we picked was perfect, lots of room, shade, water front with access to put in our kayak, kid and pet friendly! Love!

Too hard to use . I liked the old version a lot better . It was easy to use . Never did get to make my reservation. Figured I would check and see if they have any sites left when we go . If not we will go to the state campgrounds . They always have sites left .

Love this campground. We were on Site 28 and it had a beautiful backdrop of the lake. This site does have a slope on the pad but that is the only negative thing I can say. We were able beach the kayaks right up to our site. Can't wait to come back.
