Beautiful and clean tent site! Very quiet area, the play area is for smaller kiddos. There is currently no spillway/beach area the water is up too high, still able to swim tho. Cons, long walk to bathhouse with stairs. Not a lot of grassy area for pets.

We were in site 04 which looks right over the lake. It rained the whole week but we were able to go fishing at least one day. Hosts are friendly and it is a clean park. Our most favorite
