Camp hosts were very friendly and on the spot with keeping facilities clean. I was surprised at how small the green space was for putting up a tent. (Hard if you want to have more than one sleeping tent). Again sites well groomed and cared for. Was there for the fishing opener and camp ground wasn't noisy. A few camp sites you could hear into the night but nothing too disturbing, just people talking and laughing around the fire. Going to be honest I was disappointed in the fishing pier. I was expecting it to go out onto the lake a bit more, instead it stops right at the shore. So didn't see much advantage fishing there vs any other part of the shore line. The lake was quiet. Granted it was fishing opener and not the height of the water sport season but was again surprised considering the residential side of the lake. Overall a good place for a quiet opener.

We had an excellent time there, however, the reviews i thought i had read stated that there was cell service. There was not. That was absolutely fine except i wish i would have known and could have downloaded some maps. Also, we didn't have any luck fishing, I believe that lake has been fished dry. Thanks for the good times though. We had a fun weekend canoeing and relaxing.

Campground is nice. Not too big. Not too small. Great beach area and facilities. The best part about the campground was the hosts. Annie and Kevin really take care of the place and the guests.

Such an amazing campsite! The park was so clean (even the vault toilet!) ! The park ranger left us a bunch of firewood for free. My husband and I had very relaxing weekend away from the cities. We will definitely be returning in the future!
