Nice campground, but the electric needs to be updated. We experienced constant surges of electric. There were also dogs running all over on their own without leashes. We had to yell at dogs to get out of our camp site multiple times. There were side by side utv's driving around, and the park rules state they are not allowed. I think the rules should be enforced, otherwise this nice campground will become out of control which would be a shame.
