Great Place, quiet and laid back, where you can hike, fish, kayak, walk and have a camp fire. Have to try the Buzzard Pizza, seven miles north of the outlet.

We visited this camp ground in early October. The grounds were very clean. We had great wi-fi connectivity with T-Mobile. We did not use the WeBoost. The bath house was clean and offered nice, hot showers. The camp hosts were not very friendly. Didn't offer a map of the grounds or help to navigate us to the correct camping site. We've stayed at many Corp of Engineer sites and that had never happened before. A self-check in would have been just as easy.

Park is clean and well maintained. Good phone and television reception. Great for walking and biking. A little far from stores, but overall I would recommend.
