Nice place, could use restrooms and showers closer to our camp site, but wasn't bad.

We were in site 5. When we arrived the water wasn’t working. We had to share the water with the person in site 6. Luckily they had a “tee” to hook both hoses to their site or we would have had no water for the weekend. I was told later that it hasn’t worked for over a year by someone that once booked that site. That site either needs to be repaired or at the very least, but a note on the reservation website that the water is broken so whoever is booking it will have a heads up BEFORE they book that site. That could potentially ruin a weekend if you’re not able to have water hookups on your trip.

The place was nice and quiet. The bathrooms could have used a little more attention. They also had a game cleaning station which was nice and well lite up if the lights were needed. The little store down the road didn’t have much but they cooked a great breakfast and lunch.

Very quiet park. Excellent place for a small group of campers to get together and enjoy the outdoors.
