Our site #185 was at the end of a peninsula overlooking the lake. The site was spacious and just down the road from the beach. With the America the Beautiful pass we ended up paying $9.00 per night including electric! We left 2 days early & we’re pleasantly surprised to find a refund for those days! Great campground!

Had a very good time here. The light wasn’t working in the bathroom side of the shower house but when we let a worker know it was fixed very quickly. Enjoyed ourselves there. Will definitely be back

when we checked in on July 2 the Gate attendant was extremely rude and disrespectful. She was complaining that it was 7:45 and had already worked 45 minutes pasted her shift. She was speaking rudely to us and others who just wanted to check into their camp site. She began arguing with a lady who had been waiting in line to get her camping tags. Overall the gate attendant just kept complaining and being extremely disrespectful to guest trying to check in to camp.
