We have camped here many times and always enjoy it for several reasons. It’s quiet, well maintained, clean, patrolled, great views and mostly good sites. We stayed at 22 the last time there and it’s a great non electric site with shade, space between neighboring sites, and right on the water. Has a great fire pit location and a well grated site. There is a decline toward the water

Site 30, Turkey Point. Very close to the lake with a stone path to get there. Shaded.

The proximity to the lake was a highlight and the open space for dog walks and hikes was also a bonus but the shower facility was top notch…I could have lounged in the shower for ever! Hot water, very clean and real shower doors which gives plenty of privacy - loved it!

I have a 4x4 overland truck. The tent spots are on the lake shore, table and bbq pit facing fall sunrise. Very low light pollution except from Osage City. There is a very active trail track. You’ll hear the train horns at night. But the lake view and shore waves were a great sleep aid. Restroom and shower were clean and working, lots of hot water.
