Very nice clean campground. Beautiful area bike trail attached right to the park. We’ve never camped here before but we rode through in the summer there were a lot of flies. When we camped mid October we didn’t see any. Lots of trails to walk nice spots overlooking the water. We will definitely go back. But make sure you bring your own meals. Not too many restaurants around. Site we were at only had electric, but they do have a dump station and fresh water.
