I hadn't been here since 2020 and the improvement made were greatly appreciated. Bathrooms where really clean and nice. Park is kept very clean. Appreciate that it's a very low-key campground and tons of great views of the lake.

Make sure the camp site you choose is not a redesigned tent spot, tables and fire pits are on the wrong side. Beaches are nice and quiet. New restrooms are clean!!!

The campgrounds and facilities are very clean.
The playground area needs to be patrolled in the evening teenage kids using foul language disrespecting adults.
I am disappointed in all of the sites that were reserved but yet empty because people canceled they should put a two week cancellation on sites if you can’t cancel in two weeks you lose full fee.

The "upgrades" to the bathrooms were not done right. They removed several and replaced them with just a few. Long walk to the bathrooms and sometimes a line.
