It was perfect other than we forgot the lights and there were no lights installed at the pavilion! Beautiful location, very well kept, and very clean. I would definitely book here again

Lot # 17 was really GrEaT! We had a good view of the lake. It was peacefully and relaxing atmosphere. Thankful we camped here for OuR first trip. We did have to be careful with a low tree limb on OuR fifth wheel. We were NoT sure if we should have relocated or NoT. 😅

Was able to forage for firewood and start one up in one of the first-come-first served sites. Didn’t use the water or electrical, but it was there if we needed it. Nice picnic table there too. Adequate site for $22 after the processing fee.

I was very disappointed with 2 of my days here!! They did a controlled burn left our camp site with horrible smoke for two days !! My husband could not come out to enjoy our company or these wonderful woods and views!! Very sad to say I love this camp ground we usually get to come in the fall, this was our first visit in the spring, very disappointed!!
