Water meter was leaking. Was a swamp and had been leaking for a long time. Shower house shower still out of order after 3 years. Rarely mowed. Just very shabby than how it used to be kept pre covid. You have such a beautiful facility and its slowly falling apart because nothing is being taken care of.

Many of the bathrooms/shower houses were closed. We had to drive each time we needed to use facilities.

Everything was good. Showers were nice: they had heaters for cold days. It needs exit signs telling you how to get out.

Someone was in our spot that we reserved. They said they had it booked as well. Tried calling office 3 times, left voicemail 3 times and have emailed them twice… no response on any of them and it’s been over a week now.

We’ve camped here for over 20 years and we’ve seen a serious decline in how the area has been taken care of.
1. Campsites with no sewer hook-ups has no open bathrooms available yet sites with sewer hook-ups have bathrooms open. It has been this way for atleast 3 years.
2. We now have to bring our own mower since the camp sites are only mowed every 3-4 weeks.
3. Because the open areas are no longer mowed, the overall look is horrible. Especially around the group shelters. We no longer rent them because there’s no place for our group to enjoy outdoor activities.
4. Why have camp host been removed? They were a key reason the park looked so nice and now it looks and feels like we’re trying to camp in a farmer’s field.
Overall, we’re extremely disappointed in how the park has declined. We rarely see rangers unless they’re trying to repair minor issues. Is this because the park management is doing a poor job or has no interest in retaining the long history of this park and how nice it used to be.
