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.

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

C-146 is on the outer edge of outlet park and very quiet. You can see the water but are away 100 yards so the geese are not a problem. It is easy to back into and has full hook ups.

Our stay was in the first part of September, it was very hot and the Outlet Pond had warnings about blue-green algae. Other than that small inconvenience, the corps of engineers has created a beautiful park that is well laid out with paved roads and plenty of trails for walking and biking. This park is well deserving of 5 a star rating.

The grounds and camping spots are well kept and very clean.

We camped with a motorhome in the full hookup area. There was way to many extra cars, trucks, and people at each spot making it feel crowded. The lack of signage made it hard to find spaces in our area.
