The sites are pretty level. The bike trails are great. Just wish there was water available for longer stays.

I love the quietness of this campground. Every camper always seems friendly and just happy to chat.

The lake is always amazing and the wildlife is spectacular.

We had reservations for 2 nights, but the bugs were so bad, we left around 3 next day, tried to cancel my reservation but had no internet. It's a nice campground. Just not fond of the bugs

We were in site 46 which opened up the camp side to the lake. It was stunning. As a full hookup site, it had all the amenities. However please be aware that the serere back to front slope required ingenuity to get close to level with our 28ft travel trailer. We didn't actually get level because the nose just needed to be so high.
