You can't run generator after 10pm. It was super quiet and for my husband's cpap machine. Other than that it was great.

The staff here are all great! I called a number of times with questions regarding our reservation and was greeted with a friendly staff member happy to chat every time. The group site (Cabin Creek) was large, clean and perfect for what we needed. The covered pavilion area easily would fit 30-40 people and tons of tables.
My only complaint would be the dirt bikers/ ATV riders ripping through the campground all day every day. Riding around through the campground was dusty and loud. But overall the people working here and facilities were great.

We camped at spot 12. When I reserved it it said that it had shade and was a premium camp site. When we got there the only spot they would allow us to put the tent had no shad at any point of the day. It was in the sun 100% of the time. It was around 100 degress when we camped there with kids and dogs. There was no way we could be in that hot sun all day. We had placed our tent in the camp site under the prefect shade tree. They came by and instead of talking with us they left a piece of paper on my windshield that said our tent had to be moved out on the designated tent pad or we had to leave. So we packed up and left. We had reserved for 3 nights and only stayed for one. The camp site is beautiful but where they expect you to put a tent is rediculous. I can't imagine anyone ever wanting to camp at site 12. This was a giant waste of money so beware what site you are wanting to stay in. They have rules not posted on this site that they make you abide by once you get there and there are no refunds if you want to leave because of their rules.
