I find this campground to be very quiet and peaceful especially because it is not right on the water. There are above average amount of mosquitoes just because of the tree coverage. Overall I find this campground to be very usable.

We were a little disappointed with this camping trip. The grass was SO long. The kids were uncomfortable playing in the grass because of the length. The area seemed very neglected compared to past trips to this location.

The campsites were beautiful. Nice calm, the dogs and kids could play in the yards of the two sites that we had rented. Perfectly shaded sites to where you could enjoy being outside.

Poor upkeep on electrical boxes, intermittent voltage took out the fan on my converter, this is twice it has happened, the other time was at Michigan Valley
I’m tired of spending money because of the corps poor upkeep

This is a very quiet campground. Lots of trees and shade. Not as busy as the other campgrounds at Pomona. There was a nice playground near the restrooms. All of facilities were well kept. I also noticed their horseshoe pit. If you're not wanting to be right on the water, this is a fantastic campground and I would highly recommend it!
