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.

Some family and friends of mined camped for 3 nights there. We loved it. There was 5 campers in our group. We would have loved to have sewage hook up but we understand the expense of this. One complaint I do have is the lack of lighting in the campground. Walking at night couldn't be done or walking to the bathhouse/restroom required a flashlight. we discussed this and how nice it would have been to have had more lighting.
