The young man working the gate was polite, professional and helpful. We had a good site and a great time.

It seems that the Corp has decided there is no need to make rounds so people seem to be doing whatever they wish. Loud music after 10 pm, people parking any place including in the grass, And while we are on the topic of grass the circle we were in smelled like a skunk on the weekend and that's in a Corp Park where that activity is banned. I'll add that the restrooms needed more attention after someone failed to get to the toilet in time and left the mess all over for the place for the contacted service to clean it up, but they must have been so disgusted they didn't clean it very well it's sad to see this campground going down hill like this.

The only bad thing I could say is about the new way or getting reservations. I wish it would go back to the old way when we were on a first come first served. We love to go camping but I haven't been able to get any dates but Monday through Thursday, and we normally stay for at least one to two weeks. I have talked to many campers that used to be around with us, and they say the same thing. Thinking about looking for a campground we can just leave the camper parked all year round.

I stayed in site 68 which is a back-in, level blacktop site. It was plenty long enough for my 30 ft 5th wheel and tow vehicle. There is a water supply close enough to full your fresh water tank easily. This site is shaded and more secluded then most of the others. The public day area has nice hiking trails with information about the wildlife and plants. There was some verizon cell service and not good for starlink due to the trees. I will return!
