Campground was quiet, the bathrooms and showers were clean. Firewood and ice was fairly priced.

I do wish there was some kind of boat rental for the lakes, or easier bank fishing access.

Lonnie and Sharron are great folks. Both of them make you feel very welcome. They both are always working and available when you need something like fire wood, ice, etc formation, etc. Restrooms and showers are always clean. I love camping there!

Website says 15 amp service, but its 30 amp. Water filled up upon arrival. It was a little tight backing in our TT, but it was a great site! Handicap accessible site! There was poison ivy located in the campsite and we found ticks on us, but we got to explore quite a bit of the campground!
