Stopped here late on the Thursday night before Memorial Day weekend while passing thru the area. The website showed a few spots still open. When we arrived, the check in station was already closed. We ran into a camp host after we drove in and asked about site availability for the night. He initially told us they were completely booked but after I mentioned I saw some on Recreation.gov he verified what sites were available for the night. We picked Site 30 near the shower house that was fairly level and got set up before dark after a long day. Even the the campground was almost full, it was a quiet and restful night. The next day we took a walk around the campground and to the boat launch area before heading home. There are many nice sites here, some with great lake views. The campground and restrooms were clean. It is only a short drive off the interstate thru a mostly residential area.
