Had no issues with the campsite #1. Nice shade and level. Only issue we had was there was no dock by the boat ramp. Didn’t sound like this would be resolved anytime soon.

Nice park for a short camping stay. Showers need maintenance and is quite a steep walk to get there. Campsites are fairly large and somewhat level. Close to town for supplies.

I love the campground, although every site leaned towards the lake. Setting up took a little longer, but it eventually leveled out correctly.
The internet access was two Verizon bars. I never used the restroom or showers, but the playground was occupied by happy children.
This is a great location for fishing, with access via boat from the shoreline and the pier provided.
The RV dump was clean with a lovely hose to flush my system, and the campground host did daily checks with happy waves as they passed.
