Love this campground and this lake. We always have the most amazing time when we stay there.
The water is so clean and clear and the campground area usually has a calm lake area, great for kayaking.

I was on the campsite D7. The site was kind of small for a double, and also there is only 1 faucet for a water hookup. We had 2 trailers so we had to go buy a splitter so we could both get water. Otherwise, everything was fine.

We do not like the new time for check in it is 2:00 and check out is 11:00 so that really cuts into your time, which is not cheap. You have to arrive late or pay to arrive earlier and then if you want to spend anytime on the lake at all on say a Sunday check out you would have to pay for another night. Just don't like the new rules on time. I mean if someone is not on the camp sight why can't we go ahead an occupy it sooner. Glad there are other campgrounds in the area.

This was a peaceful park. We enjoyed the wooded path around the lake which could be accessed right from our campground.
