We love this camp! We can leave our boat in the water for the time we are there. We spend most of the day in the water!
The camp host is the best, she will help with anything she can.

We camp here just about every weekend, it's close to our dock and boat. Angie is the best campground host...HANDS DOWN. We stay in the "A" Loop...its quiet, clean and the spots have good shade. The B and C loops have great water views and you can beach your boat. There's a great beach at the end of the main road to cool off at and it too is fairly quiet and well maintained. A+ campground and experience EVERY TIME!

I feel so safe there knowing Angie is on duty as site manager . They always check on us and are so great . Park is maintained well we camp by dumpster parking lot and I would not do this at any other camp site . Dimpsters are often really bad.
