Well kept campground, sites and bathrooms. Our campsite overlooked the lake, had a lot of room, and it was very private with at least 50 feet of trees in between our site and the next one.

Beautiful wooded area with warblers singing overhead. Mosquitos desended on us in the evenings and were still around in the morning in spite of being cold. Good campsite, would return. June 13-15 2023.

Everything was great! However, the washroom code was not on my invoice. Fortunately the people are so friendly we were given it by other campers.

We love this campground but this year, for some reason, the mosquitoes were beyond extreeme. There were swarms of them waiting for us every time we got out of the camper. After two nights of very little sleep because they were getting in the camper, we had to leave. we plan on returning again next year and hopefully the mosquitoes are not as bad as this year.
The campground in general is just wonderful. The workers are always friendly and the facilities are always neat and clean. I always recomend this place to anyone I talk to.
