Campground clean and well maintained. Camp host friendly and helpful. Beautiful lake view.

All sites are near the lake, positioned so that most sites' view of the water is not blocked by other RVs. The sites look new, are spacious and have electricity and water. Various sites are high overlooks or nearer the lake level. Dump station is available near exit. Roads are nicely paved and good for bike riding, but steep hills. Host came to each site to warn of impending storm and tell where we might seek shelter. A new campground to me, but I will return. It is only a few minutes from Manhattan, home of Kansas State University and its Aggieville for some entertainment and good places to eat.

Sites are very nice. Good view of lake. Tight to get into with narrow road and guardrails.

It would have been much better if the site was level And the showers and bathrooms were updated. Aside from that, it's a nice campground.

This is a very nice camp ground, but not real large. Very clean and quiet with a wonderful view from most sites. However, if you are wanting to ride bikes or hike, this is not the best place. It is on a very steep hill and there are no walking trails. We ended up going down to the State Park to do our bike riding. Shower rooms are in good conditions and the pit toilets are clean and decent smelling.
