Geat park. This is probably our 7th or 8th time to stay here (we go to Phoenix for the winter). We typically stay a night or two, as it is so quiet with a great view of the pond, lots of places to walk and the people we have parked next to are always very friendly. We always stay in a pull through (we got the last one this trip). We have a 44' 5W (we barely fit as we don't typically unhook if we are only staying one night). The sites are gravel, but fairly level. The staff here is always friendly and helpful.

Every year Ticks are always prevalent. Would be nice if camping area could be sprayed.
This year, there were a lit of ants getting into rigs also.

Great experience. Plenty to do around the lake from hiking to fishing to kayaking. The sites are always in great shape with easy parking for any sized trailer.
