Got there early in the week, but within a day the place was mowed and looked very nice. Such a great place we were able to leave our kayaks, bikes, and other things out. No worries about anybody bothering our stuff. Felt very safe there.

A favorite place to go. Restrooms very well maintained. Campsite very nice. My only issue is the rule not allowing me to use my golf cart as I am very limited in my walking. Really wish you would reconsider this rule as it helps me so much in getting around. It is hard for me to understand this rule.
