We love this place and would recommend it to anyone. The bike trails around the lake are amazing. Facilities were clean and grounds were kept up great. Stayed in June 2024

Be careful reserving a site here. We found 2 sites available for our one-night stay as we were passing through. What we failed to notice was that those two sites only had electric, no water or sewer, while the others around us did. Our site was also very unlevel, -4 degree slope. We stayed hooked to the truck which made it even steeper. It was completely our fault for not reading the description and need-to-know closely enough. Anyway, we had water on board and didn't need to dump either, so all in all it was an okay visit, but probably won't come back. But the price is right, so who knows.

Beautiful clean campground. Easy access to I-57 so great for quick overnighter but nice enough for a longer stay. Highly recommended!

The site was beautiful but we couldn't stay because the grade was too steep. We were in a 29' motor home, our jacks were maxed out and we were still not level. We had to pull out and we were refunded promptly without any fees.

We stayed in site 20 with a class A and toad. FHU and easy to level. Great campground. We stay often when we are in this area.
