We love this campground! Paved sites with Full Hookups make it an easy stop. Wish the sites were a bit more level though! The lake is nearby. The dump station is convenient and I am glad that the dumpsters have been moved out of the RV sites and closer to the Dump Station.

Awesome view of the lake and great area with full hookups.The site slopes towards the lake but nothing we couldn’t handle

Nice campground for a one night stop. Only complaint is that the showers nozzles spray in every direction but down - I tried 3 before just giving up and doing the best I could do! The campground is very pretty and we were happy to have such a nice spot at a reasonable price!

Beautiful campground, great play area for kids. Only complaint was that we had a lot of trouble finding a dumpster for trash.

Nice & quiet park during the week. Very few level sites. We didnt cross paths with the battle ax others complain about. We were prepaid & never registered upon entering.

Site 021 was pretty level nice spacing and close to the lake. Easy back in with no obstructions. Campground was very clean and orderly all around. This sit is also conveniently right across the street from the flush toilet building.

Facility was clean and well maintained. There are some sites that may present leveling problems due to their slope but site 061 did not. Camped with a diesel pusher (40 ft) and was able to level with just a set of rear jack pads.

Grass was a little high resulting in swarms of gnats but great electric site with water right across the rrroad
