We love this park and will continue to camp here and have introduced it to 4 other couples that enjoyed it as much as we did...however, the locks on BOTH of them women's restrooms stall doors do not work properly. This could quickly become a safety issue. Considering the bathrooms only accommodate one person at a time, there should be a lock on the entrance door that users can lock once inside. Can someone please look into this? We shouldn't have to ask our spouses to stand outside to make sure no one comes in.

Stayed here as a shakedown for my older motorhome, it's a nice spot, quit and well kept. I left a day early as there were some nasty storms forecast for that night and with slow cell service (Verizon) I figured it would be wiser to be home.

This is a very peaceful park. There are some things to be aware of, the restrooms need to be rebuilt, the undergrowth between the site pads and the lake should be cleared out and maintained that way. The road is one lane and it is narrow but you can manage it with a big rig. We use C-Spire cell service and there was almost none. I'd say the foliage is too thick for satelite service. We did manage to get 25 digital channels

This is a really well kept park and very close to town and stuff. We got to meet the new camp host this trip and they were very pleasant. We will always try and stay here where life is great and it is quiet. We go at off times so never crowded.
