This campground was very clean. The bath house was very clean. The washer and dryers were initially not working but they were fixed within a couple days. Clean laundry room.

Water drop offs for kayaks were flooded with boats, the one boat ramp across the hill was disgusting. Lots of trash in the water. Other places were flooded with fishermen so I couldn't interrupt there fishing with kayaks. The campground was beautiful. It was very family oriented.
