Our site was fantastic... edge of the water with unobstructed view of the lake. Was told that when Army Corps stays, they prefer this site and I have no doubt of the veracity of the claim. AND like other reviews, the golf cart parade is real! Felt like I was the gorilla at the zoo that everybody needed to drive by and see. So my only negative really is that there's no privacy if you stay at this location.

Campground was clean and they showers and bath facilities were clean and stocked as well... Would love to come back, but may consider a different location.
