Just as expected, quiet with other guests taking walks with their dogs or bicycling around! We just wanted a quiet camping experience then.

We love it. Really nice park with full hook ups. Water views with beautiful sunrises and sun sets. The granddaughters ride their bicycles and fish a little. The park is clean and grass is mowed. Nature trails are available and there are shade trees to st under and watch the world go by.
