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!!

Campsite size is NOT as advertised. This site may fit a 24 ft camper max but that would be tight. The picnic table is poorly placed near the center of the site and can NOT be moved. Don’t trust the size posted! Luckily there was an available site to move to big enough for our camper.

Everything was in pretty good shape except for the sewer at site 21 and the restroom next door. The sewer was completely stopped up and had been that way for sometime. Also the roads need to be repaired. Hard to walk with all those holes in the road. The host did try to help but it was not a lot he could do.
