Where was the staff? Did not see any staff. Park was open 24 hours. Just before turning in for the night someone had placed the park pass on the picnic table - don't know who or when. Some sites were close together. Don't believe we will return to this park.

Very good camping area for a quite, relax and enjoyable view of the Lake. Friendly gate keeper and camping neighbors who help make it an enjoyable, particularly the gate keeper who goes out of her way to help campers to make it an camping experience.

The coded restroom had human feces smeared on the commode, dirty underwear on the bathroom floor, Dead bugs everywhere in the restroom. Campground not tidy….I’ve been camping here for 50 years and it has never looked this bad. Very sad to see this campground go down. Wifi was terrible and non-existant

This is a great campground, the camp Host is amazing, sadly they’re doing away with their camp house for federal campgrounds, which is going to diminish the quality of care and your experience at camping at these sites
