Very nice site with large spacing between other campers. Campground was very well taken care of with awesome bike trail. Wish there would have been more full hookup options to camp at. Will definitely be camping here again.

This is a nice campground. We liked that the sites were large and had space in between. The view of the lake was beautiful. Also the restrooms were kept clean and neat. Unfortunately, site 90 had a big drop off between the driveway and the picnic table/fire ring. Our camper steps wouldn’t reach the ground so we had to use blocks. That made the last step down a long/risky one. The Corps should consider building up the ground on that site to make it more safe.

We had a fantastic weekend! There is so much to do between lake activities and the bike trails-also the nearby towns offered great dining choices and a nearby Wally World for items forgotten to pack. My only detraction is the site we were on was so sloped that when I positioned my trailer in the best spot to take advantage of the pad and picnic table the sewer was uphill from the camper. I actually had to wait until I was hitched up and ready to go and pull the camper forward before I could dump.

It would have been 5 stars if I wouldn't have gotten double booked. Came back from the lake and there was another family that had set up their tents and everything in our spot thinking we was leaving and we wasn't. Still had another night. The agent was very friendly and offered us another spot so we figured it was easier for us to hook up our camper then them pack up their tents.
