Site 10, great level spot! Nice shady site. one site away from the bathhouse. My only complaint would be that the campground map indicated a water hookup near the site, but the hookup had been relocated to the other side of the bathhouses and was not operational. Overall, this did not affect our experience. I like the added benefit of being able to stretch a hose to fill back up if needed!

The site had power issues. We lost power on the 3rd night. I notified the camp host in the morning. A ranger came by and was able to have a maintenance person come out to troubleshoot and attempt to repair the power post. He found the power pole was showing @48v on the metal frame of the post. He replaced post and intermittently it was still showing @48v on the metal frame of the post.

I had a reservation for one site but when we got to the site we didn’t like it so we ask the attendant if we could switch. He cheerfully switched it for us!

Clean bathrooms, clean shower houses, camp store was awesome. Water front sites are bit tricky but worth the view!
