Nice long pull through site in B Loop with 50 amp service & full service connections.
Shade available from mature trees.
Site was level. All good. Would recommend to others.

Very good nice spots. Please do something about the blue green algae. I think it is controllable if you would just do it.

We loved our campsite spot except for the grass not being mowed. It was so high, we couldn’t play any of the yard games we had brought with us. We were there for six days & seven nights & the grass was above ankle high the entire time we were there. The day before we left, a man came & mowed around the camp host, but no where else. It was very disappointing that we couldn’t enjoy our yard games on any of the days we were there.

Nice to have water, electric, and sewage dump all at your camper. Several trees for shade in B-loop, but so many gnats from 5pm-10am. Made it unbearable to be outside during that time. Also they wouldn't go away with the camp fire or bug killer. Also no fire rings or pits, you have to bring your own. Shower and bathrooms were great compared to others.

Love the little hiking trail behind the playground area. It is like finding an oasis in the middle of the dessert. So beautiful and peaceful.
