Good campground. Roads need a little bit of work.

Great Location, Awesome view. Check in was easy and friendly. Everything was pretty much perfect except the shower house. Cleanliness was okay but one sink was not operating with a busted pipe underneath and the the fixtures were showing wear and rust specially in the shower area. The shower heads were not very good. Also, too hot in the shower house and many wasps and hornets buzzing just outside the door

We've been camping here for 25+ years and have never been disappointed. Always clean. Always nice friendly caretakers. We like that it is a smaller campground and very family friendly! We give it all the stars!!!

The only one bath room and shower building was nasty! Dated far beyond cleaning rust, scale and mold and broken equipment. Both on/off water valve leaking water at dump station and lid to the sewage inlet was missing covered with a rock. Someone is not watching the ball here. We stay primarily at COE'S across the country because they are well maintained but this one needs higher level management review. Also washed out roads and culverts and pot holes. Beautiful area but won't be back.

It was our first time at this campground. It was VERY difficult to find…but well worth the hunt. We definitely plan to return. Our campsite was private and had pretty views

Driveway in and out of site was very steep and broke our spare tire holder. Picnic table was in the middle of the site and we had to move it to it's proper place in the rain.

Campground was fine but backing into the camp site was very difficult.

Campground has lots of trees and shade, dump station and bath house. We camped in site 22 which has a level gravel back-in pad, great views of the lake, electric & water, picnic table and firepit. It was a bit challenging backing our 35 foot fifth wheel in to the site and with a neighbor helping direct my husband out we had no problem. We camped at Hurricane Creek in a Fifth Wheel.
