Woman’s bathroom had holes in the corrugated plastic roof. Both restrooms were old and worn out, paint peeling off the walls, broken hardware, etc. The roads were narrow with tight turns and the apron was not well maintained for a large rig. The campground was not well marked, there were no signs with Beaver Dam to let us know we were on the right road. The sites were large and in good shape. The camp host was very friendly.

As soon as we get there we find out that a prior guest ran over our water pipes and broke them. They had done this 2 weeks before we arrived. NOT one person could notify us that this was going to be a problem I was informed the park knew about it but said they couldn't afford to fix it!! Really?? So we had to go out a find a very very long hose to run to another camp site.

Out away from town, make sure you fill your food and Ice and other camping supplies including bait if your going to fish. Very muck a quiet out in the woods camp. Showers and toilets are very dated but usable
