Nice, smaller campground. Helpful staff. Sites were not level so if you do not have leveling jacks then it will take some effort to get level. We had a nice two day stay before moving on.

Need to remove sight 2. Sites 1,2, and 3 are too closely packed together. Cannot use campfire, grills, tables without over sharing with your neighbors.
Camp hosts were great people and very a helpful.

It is a lovely site! For tenters, a surface more amenable to tents would be nice, rather than stone. Access to potable water at tenting sites would also be handy (like the RV sites have), especially since the area designated for dishwashing was not operational. But, it's very nice that the tent sites have pads nearer the lake.

Scenic drive to a beautiful campground. Herons, cranes, & storks dining in the lake. We enjoyed a pair of woodpeckers working on a tree near our 1st campsite. Site 16 is awesome and large. We had 2 nights at 16, and 1 night at site 4. Site 4 is at the swim area if you're there in summer. There's a bench at the swim area that we used for watching 14 storks having breakfast.
The bath house and showers are clean, but they're in need of a LOT of repair work.

Very clean quiet campground that is right on the lake. Some spots have view of the lake, some do not. The bathrooms were clean but outdated. Nice that there is a boat ramp in the campground with plenty of parking for trailers. However, the access to the swim beach is walking thru or right next to other camp spots. Also the only good place to put in kayaks is at the boat ramp. But we enjoyed our stay and would come back.
