We were traveling through looking for a convenient location on Hwy 56. It was great and loved the layouts of
the campsites. Will return.

Loved the view of the lake out of my windows. It’s a very clean campground,
Also very quite and I liked that it didn’t have street lights glaring down all night long.

Water lines to campground need repaired. Pit-toilet at boat ramp wasn’t resupplied during our stay and men’s toilet needs repaired. The park could use some maintenance work.

There is a camp host that appears to live there. However the place is never mowed, the water was not working, electricity was not working. This used to be an awesome place to camp and was well kept but it has went down over the last year.

A wonderful site overall! Love that each site had a table and covered area. Unfortunately, the water was not on as we expected. Otherwise, really nice and clean camp.
