Site 158 was located near the water and offered ample shade. Easy set up with plenty of room. Be on the lookout for ticks. Restroom and shower areas were clean well lit. This site was quiet.

Previous years the large garbage cans were in the campground across from the playground which were convenient for everyone camping. Now they are all by the entrance which is much more inconvenient when it’s time to discard the garbage. It would be much more convenient if a couple of dumpsters are placed where they were previously.

My only complaint is that the power hook up is at the entrance of the site when they are usually at the back corner. I didn't have the proper extension cord so by the time my 16ft camper and SUV parked in front of it my front tires were on the road. Otherwise it was a great site with great views.

We awanted to move out lacation to a spot that was vacated. We found spot was vacant both physically and on the website...but the rangers still did not let us move our camp to that location because according to them, it's still paid for few days. 🤦🏽♂️...so why was it available on the website?
