Nice quiet stay, even though it was Washunga Days in the town nearby. This is such a great location, with it being on the lake and near Council Grove. The campground was well kept and the staff kept an eye on things without being annoying. We stay here often.

Nice quiet little lake. Some cute stores in Council Grove. Hays House Restaurant is a great place for a meal out.

Spent a weekend at the group site. It was a cool wet weekend but the view is awesome and the trees protected us from the strong south wind.

We hope to try it again with better weather. Really enjoy this campground as we stayed in one of the sites last year.

We really like the campground. It’s well kept up & plenty of room for games & small gatherings with our group. This year it was a little unfortunate because of the weather, something that can’t be helped. We left a day early because of storms but had one perfect day to go in town & hit up the shops then to have a fire that night.

The campsite was great. The utilities worked and we were in a beautiful location. There were some wasps that showed up. We did NOT cook outside, so we didn't have to deal with them. We were also there in April when there weren't many other campers, so it was very quiet. We didn't use the showers or the dump, so we can't comment on those.
