What Guests Are Saying
The South Abutment East is praised for its suitability for hunting. However, some users noted that bathrooms were locked during their stay and experienced early morning maintenance activities, which were disruptive. Overall, the location offers good amenities but has room for improvement in access and timing.

Great for hunting, the showers and bathrooms were open on the other side but the bathrooms were locked the whole time on outside. Also they came to leaf blow the asphalt off at 6:40 am my last Friday there wasn’t thrilled.

The facilities at each campsite are exactly as advertised, you get a picnic table, grill, fire ring, and adjacent wilderness but the campsites are jammed together tightly, to the point that if anyone else had been there they would have been right on top of us. In addition, the campsite we were at (#3) was brightly lit all night by the powerful overhead lights for the nearby boat ramp. The fishing was terrible and the water at the boat ramp looked too low to actually put a boat in. In the middle of the night, we were exposed to local culture as a bunch of rednecks revved their loud truck around the campsites taking pot shots at things.
