Beautiful view of the lake. Bathrooms were kept extremely clean. Wish I could still be enjoying a cup of coffee by the water at Wax.

Nice clean camp site accept for cigarette butts. Jake brakes on trucks on main road next to camp sites...very annoying. Camp staff very nice. Excellent bath house. Easy to use dump station and trash bin. Lots of friendly campers. Great access to lake. Wifi worked...but didn't stream with hot spot on Smart TV. 35 minutes to town. Good idea to fuel up off main highway before driving in.
