Campsites are nicely secluded from others and well cared for. We love the swimming beach and boat access. Fish cleaning house is nice but could use better lighting.

Nice long site, with plenty of room in the back area. Only slightly unlevel. Dark and quiet with space and plants between sites. It’s a rustic campground with electric. The pit toilets were clean. The camp hosts were helpful and friendly. T-Mobile worked fairly well.

We discovered this campsite last year, and it has quickly become our go-to spot whenever we're camping. The campground is quiet, the bathrooms are clean, and the sites are great. The hosts are always incredibly friendly, and check-in is easy and straightforward, so you know exactly where to go. It truly makes camping a breeze!

Site 38 is good, trail to shore for parking a boat, but the 30 amp electric not so much. My camper has a built in surge and low voltage protector, which kept tripping while plugged into the 30 amp outlet. Saw a prior review of this site who had the same issue. I turned off the 30 amp & plugged into the 20 amp outlet & was able to run 1 A/C on low with no problem (except for having to run fridge & HW heater on propane for our 5 days... & turning off A/C when using any appliance (toaster, coffee maker etc). Had this issue 2 years ago in this same site. I've not had this power issue anywhere else using my cords... so there's something amiss with their 30 amp service. So, if you have a protector in your camper be aware you may only have 20 amp service in this site.

What a great place to camp. The lake is clean and very top surface warm. Great swimming and I had a very nice lake site that was perfect. The camp staff is extremely helpful and friendly. Delivered my wood and always waved when they went by 🩷beautiful lake you must try it

Seemed nice enough; getting our 23 ft travel trailer in a 30 ft maximum lot was a tight squeeze. The area around it would have been better if the access to park was better equiped for our size camper. Lots of tree stumps made it difficult as well.
