We stayed 4 nights in mid-April. Staff (and recreation.gov) were very helpful in making last minute changes to our dates of stay. Special thanks to Teresa in the office. Staff also came to each site with weather info before a night of huge thunderstorms. Parking pads built above the shore provided nice views of the lake. Other sites are along the road with picnic tables and fire rings on a separate terrace. Unusual arrangement so check pictures before booking those. Angle on the dump station required some creative parking. Bathrooms and camping area clean and attended. In nearby Nancy, KY, we enjoyed great coffee at Battlefield Coffee and excellent cider donuts and fried apple pies at Haney's Appledale Farm. Walmart, groceries and many restaurants in Somerset.

At the bottom of the hill be careful you don't go past the campground entrance and end up in the boat launch area.
