Lovely park, clean, RV sites are more private than many facilities. We will be back.

A very peaceful and beautiful campground. I went here to camp with my pet and it was very pet friendly. There is potable water, showers, and bathrooms that makes it really nice and accessible for all types of camping. Some of the tent sites you can't have your car at but most of them are good to back your car in. If you want a quiet place with trees and water near by this is your place to go.

Don't know how I never knew of this park living in the MW for my whole life. Amazing grounds, clean bathrooms, attentive and welcoming hosts, slew of wild animals to admire. I could go on and on. Will be returning, without a doubt!

The grounds are always immaculate. Campground hosts are very friendly and helpful. The sites aren't too close together. Very peaceful and relaxing campground.

Camp host was extremely friendly! The campsite was clean and comfortable. A little closer to other primitive sites than I would have liked but luckily we were the only campsite on the loop that night. Will definitely return. The bathroom facilities were clean and plentiful.

Beautiful campground. We used the lake access for the canoe. firewood is for sale at the entrance. Lots of bathrooms. Used the fire pit at the site. Staff is friendly and helpful.

Quiet campground but a 2nd vehicle has to pay admission for every day there. National Parks Pass is not honored for admission, only campsites.

I took 4 individuals who had not camped before. Used 2 tents for the 4 individuals, plus a hammock for myself. Plenty of room in the campsite.

Wish they would extend checkout on Sundays and holidays to 5pm like the state parks instead of noon
