Nice campground, but the bathrooms/showers are very dated, and most sites are not at all level. The workers/staff were VERY helpful.

Lovely campground on a beautiful lake. All sites have electric and some are full hook-ups. The only downside is that many of the sites are very unlevel. They are asphalt but most have a downward slope. Despite that, we enjoyed our stay with a peekaboo view of the water at sunset.

Every thing is good. Need to fix the door at the shower and bathroom house number 1. Can’t get it close right and lock.

Site 38 is poorly prepared for being able to exit the RV parked on the site drive. There needs to be a pad to the side of drive so when stepping off RV units steps there is not a steep slope to the ditch. We attempted to ease this transition using boards and short step stool but could not create a safe entryway
