Beautiful campgrounds and awesome sand beach!!! - Love the area. The lake is a bit crowded with trees but if you follow the buoys you'll be fine. - Will definitely be back :)

We camped in location #50 of the Mound Valley Loop. Good location with lots of shade. We camped Monday thru Thursday, so there wasn’t a lot of traffic which we really liked. We had electric and water hookups which was very convenient. Camp host staff talked with us and asked if we needed any help with anything. They were very kind and helpful. We had a great experience.

The campsites were very spaced out. This site specifically was a little sketchy to back into as it’s downhill and you have to back around a curve kind of, but once you’re in it’s great! I loved the multiple levels, and it has a little unofficial trail down to the water which was AMAZING. We were able to lay our baby down for a nap and still take the older kids to swim because we had a direct view of the camper and could be back to it within 30 seconds. The only downfall was that due to the multiple levels, there was no breeze near the picnic table area

This was a nice spot. There’s no water at the site but there is water nearby if you need it. A quiet area for a relaxing weekend and the beach was nice to go to as well.
