#15-Pull through site with slight slope but manageable, the best part is the walk down path (sorta steep :() to a beautiful beach and fishing spot! Close to water fill up and flush toilets!

The view of the lake is picturesque and being able to walk down the water from the side was nice. The bathrooms were very clean.

This site has some lovely, fairly private sites along the perimeter of the RV camping area. Most are very shady and cool in the heat. There were two separate camp hosts who split duty time. Both were personable and knowledgeable about the site.

Keep an eye on your things!!! Someone took our EMS Surge Protector while we were at the bathhouse in our camper van. We returned and since we were leaving for the evening after dinner we never plugged back in & took a nap. It wasn't until we got home about 11 we found out that our EMS was gone! We could tell someone on two bikes had been on our site so I left a note in the box at the front gate at 10 when we left. Joe called us at 2 pm and said 2 guys on bikes had turned it in from a "vacant" site the previous afternoon. Please when someone turns something in on a "vacant" site ask them what date was on the checkout slip, what's the site #, look up their phone number and call them.Last time was our lawnchairs and firewood. We had to return the next weekend because we leave an hour away. We usually love USACOE parks but this is the 2nd time something was taken. Last time it was our lawn chairs (cleaners had that) and firewood (neighbors). People need to look at the checkout date posted on the site # post and keep your paws off other camper's items. Thanks.
