This might be the choicest non-FHU site in the campground, with a clear view of the lake. It does slope slightly but not as bad as you'd first expect. Electric was a constant 124 volts and my power management outlet showed no errors. Water pressure was high. Bathrooms and shower house are cleaned every day before dawn. Ranger drove though a couple times a day. The bike trail is very nice, it's great for e-bikes and walkers too.

The camp host was very helpful in finding our spot. Restrooms/showers were very clean.
