The camp sites are great the bathroom is disgusting. Showers overflow, water running out the doors, faucets don't work, dirty floors and cracked walls. We have been coming here every year for the past 30 years and the bathrooms get worse and more disgusting every year.

It was a very peaceful and serene. Just need to do a little upkeep to the shower house and restroom.

The showers were unacceptable. Water spigots not working properly. Drainage is huge issue, Basically you are wading in 2-3 inches of water. Both toilets and showers in need of painting and general upkeep.

Good place overall, but power was out at campsite and the grounds are starting to fall into disrepair.
