The camp hosts make it worth coming back. Very friendly! The canpsite we had was awesome. We had a lake lot which had enough room the kids to play. Will be back next year, and again and again. This is our second year coming here!

Excellent campground. Private camp sites most with lake side access. Toilets are clean and camp sites are well tended.

Decent campground. Bathrooms were clean.
Many of the picnic tables are showing signs of age with rotting boards.

Hosts were great. Beautiful and clean location. Convenient to (overgrown and buggy) trails. Site was down too low and flooded.

Nice campground hosts and the outhouses were kept clean and stocked with toilet paper.
Very disappointing that the US Forest Service stopped selling wood at the campground. It was such a nice convenience knowing dry wood was available right there. Now you need to haul up what you think you might burn or drive to a resort or gas station when you need/want wood.
Really hope the Forest Service reinstates the selling of wood at the campground.

Camp ground hosts were very friendly and kept the outhouses clean and stocked with toilet paper. We had a site near the water and a large boat was using the beach area and the people were sleeping on their boat and using the bathrooms. I don’t know if they paid for a site or not. They were pulled up 25-30 ft from our tent which greatly reduced our privacy, they routinely played their music plenty loud that we could easily hear it in our tent and sitting by a fire. The beach area isn’t a camp site and they should have been asked to leave.
Very disappointed that the campground doesn’t sell wood any longer, that was a very nice amenity, now we need to estimate or need, buy elsewhere and haul it in instead of getting it as you need it from the hosts.

No wood for sale at the campground was a major factor in dissatisfaction. Also, no campground hosts were on site which meant facilities were not maintained — the previous hosts ( Terry and Brenda) were so good and I question why they were not retained.
