The facility's were clean. The boat ramp was nice and close. All volunteers were excellent people.
We really enjoyed our stay and will be back next season.

It was ok. The cell service and paved roads were great! We were in spot 7 so we were near the back set of restrooms. My son went to the boys room and I went to the ladies room. No stall doors and there were huge spiders in each bathroom! We did visit the restrooms closer to the front and they had showers. They were much nicer with stall doors and no big spiders. Very clean.
I was hoping for a nice spot to fish and swim, but there really wasn’t a good place.
There is a set of stairs down to the lake in the back of the campground, but there were so many logs and so much trash I wouldn’t let the kids swim there. This looks like a pretty big issues in that area or the lake. Nothing to do specifically with the campsite/ campground. I saw the host a few times. He was nice. The spot we were in had a great view.
Also there’s a Wendy’s and gas station just around the corner from the site. I think this would be a much better place for people with an RV, but tent camping was fun.
I wouldn’t rule out the idea of going again. Next time tho I’m bringing something to hookup to the water connection that the kids can play in. And me too. A sprinkler or something!
The trip was a success and we had a great time.

Love this campground. Everyone who works there are super friendly. Bathhouses are always clean. Smaller campground but one of our favorites.

Had a hard time finding the place. SIgns were faded and sparce. Very hilly and the spots were hard to manuever into. Not as level as we are accustomed to at COE campgrounds. With a strong wind from the south the debris along the shore was quite unsightly. The Restrooms were clean. All things considered would not be a place I would camp again if in the area.

We had a great stay at site #17 we enjoyed the beautiful lake view and the full moon over the lake each night, great view. Our side was nice and clean when we got there with it just being early in opening season, made us happy their wasn’t a lot of debris sticks and ect. Very welcoming. The bath house was nice and clean and always had soap and toilet paper. We had a great time and it was very peaceful and met some new people while out walking.
