Great facility and nice staff. The 30 amp circuit breaker was frozen. They sent a maintenance man out and he got it fixed.

The outlet area at Melvern Lake is a nice place to camp if you can get a reservation.

I would have rated this five stars but for the fact that US 75 runs north-south along the eastern side of the lake. The campsites in that area are beautiful but they are marred by the road noise, especially at night.
