The people that work here are great. The volunteers are dedicated, as well. We stayed in 38, which had a lot of room between campsites. The showers were close & kept very clean. There is a coin op laundry room behind the shower. We caught a few fish from the shore line. It was a nice stay. We’ll be back to this well -run campground.

The only thing I think would have made it better was if some of the limbs were removed. I know the weather hasn’t been very helpful with that.

Weather did not cooperate at all. Entire time it was unseasonably cool and rained 4 of the 5 days we were there. However it was still a good stay being with friends, an experience we won’t soon forget.
