Only one boat at a time on the ramp! Very small dock and a Looong way UP...to the parking lot, so you could be in for a wait to get in or out of the water. Good protected cove to launch however. Camping is a bargain for full hook up..and 1/2 price with interagency pass! Clean showers , nice level sights for the most part. Some sites you could beach your boat below and walk up to.

The campsite was not cleaned up. There were several larger branches on the parking area and picnic table. There was also a tiki torch tossed in the grass. I remember when the spots were cleaned up after every visitor.
