Try to get a spot on the lake side, sleeping in a tent on the road side was like… sleeping in a tent on the roadside.
That being said, I would absolutely go back. Hearing the waves at night is serene.

Absolutely beautiful camp. Great space. Path to the lake. Quiet and peaceful. Hosts are very friendly, helpful, and available. Only negative is way too many mosquitos. Bring a head net. We were eaten alive.

We have been camping here, on several occasions for the past 40 years. Though the number of tent campers has decreased dramatically, it still is a "rustic campsite". Mature trees provide privacy, and each site has a fire pit, a pole to hang tent gear, and ample space to place a large tent. Pit toilets are kept clean. The host does his best to enforce quiet time starting at 10pm. The use of generators running during the daytime to "power up" everyone's 'glamping needs' can be annoying, but that is not the fault of the campsite host. I do however, wish people could "do without" their power needs at a rustic campsite.
