Good campground
The 30 amp did not work on site 13. Had to use an adapter and use the 40 amp. Informed the host was not very receptive
Stayed at site 14 last fall and the 120 plug in did not work. Informed the staff. Family was at this site. The 120 plug still did not work

The campground is very nice with a beautiful setting and picturesque view of the lake. Getting in and out of the sites can be difficult, however depending on how many cars are parked in the sites around you. The attendant seems to waive rules for some and not others regarding limits and gets defensive when you try to clarify policy. This made for some tension during our stay.

We love this campground due to its location. Just a few minutes from Somerset. It’s not as critical if you forget something from home because Walmart is just a short drive away. The playground is nice for the kids and the sites are fairly level.

Very quiet, not really too big but has view of lake, nice sites. No TV from antenna, no Wi Fi and poor phone service. We will be going back. Perfect get away from the real world. Has good recreation area for kids and boat ramp right there.
