Beautiful lake and campground with many widely separated, shaded, private campsites with wide, level pads with plenty of gravelled side space with nice picnic tables, bear hooks and fire rings and electric hook-up. Nice trails that could be better maintained by cutting large trees that have fallen across the trail. Will definitely camp here again.

I love staying here. The grounds are always clean, bathrooms are always clean and well stocked, and the hosts are friendly. The kayaking at The Ole Cornfield that is just a few minutes away is a great, relaxing experience that I would recommend to anyone. The Frosty Freeze has great food. 100% one of my favorite places to stay.

Campground and facilities are always clean and well kept. Camping sites have lots of shade and space between sites so you are on top of your neighbors. Sides are good sized with fire rings and picnic tables - we've been coming here for several years and have always had good experiences. A perfect place to camp for relaxation and activities in the water.

The maintenance at the campground has went downhill. We stayed at D loop and the site was nice and clean, however, the bath house was in disrepair. One of the showers, I assumed, we’re out of order because the door was locked, and remained locked for the entire week. The other remaining shower’s water pressure could be compared to pouring water out of a bottle through a straw. It had no head pressure and it was scolding hot! The pressure issue also extended to the toilets and sinks; you can imagine the issue with the toilets. Also, forget about getting soap from the dispenser to wash your hands because it was always empty. So, other than needing to drive to another bath house in a different loop everyday to shower, our stay was ok.

The facilities were very nice, but we rented a pavilion and the door was locked for the bathrooms so that was kind of a hassle. Other than that, everything was really good.

Best campground for tent camping . The sites are spacious and fairly private as camping goes.

The campground sites are spacious with privacy between neighbors. Bath houses are clean and maintained. The only downside was the cleanliness of the beach. There are lots of weeds and debris from the lake on the beach.

Wow, this place is really going downhill fast. Our group had 3 sites in D loop. Trails down to the lake were completely overgrown where you had to duck under branches. Shower had no water pressure, literally just a trickle came out. Toilets and sinks also had no water pressure. Bathrooms dirty and not as clean as they used to keep them. Guard station up front is very slow checking people in. Had 2 wait in long lines for 20+ minutes to get in when we already had reservation.
It isnt cheap to stay here, for the price I'm really disappointed.
