The garbage was over flowing, restrooms weren’t clean and out of TP. The attendant was hard to reach. The last day we had extremely intrusive neighbors that were blaring music until 4 am and bombarding our campsite near the water. Trash was everywhere- which we understand had to do with the water levels but it was disappointing to have to deal with.

No one was in the check in station when I arrived nor was there anyone there throughout the week. The host came to my campsite and checked me in and that's the last I saw of him/her. The fire pit was completely full, items left by the precious campers including trash. I've been camping here for a number of years and never have conditions at the campsite been this terrible.
