Our one night stay was very pleasant. Staff at front gate was very friendly. Our site was hard surfaced, shaded and level - backed in, put stabilizers down, connected water/electric and relaxed. This was our last night on the road so emptied tanks and hit the road for home. Great price for full hookups. Great campground for families

I stayed one night in the Sycamore loop, which appeared to be fairly new. The bathroom was new and had four unisex rooms, each with a shower, sink, double shower, and bench. Very nice. The bike trail is fantastic and runs right next to the Sycamore loop. I tent camped on the slab, but plugged my fan into the power outlet. I had very few neighbors in this loop, whereas the other loops were pretty packed with RVs and campers. All in all one of the best Corps campgrounds I've used. Highly recommend.

There needs to be a dumpster in, or at the entrance to each loop. There use to be multiple dumpsters in each loop and they have been removed, apparently for cost saving measures from what we were told. However, having to carry garbage a 1/4 mi to the dumpster is ludicrous.
