We wanted to be able to ride our RTV in the park, which we had done at other parks, but we were told that we couldn’t even take the RTV off the trailer.

One of the most beautiful parks I have been to. The sites are well spaced, there are lots of extra parking spaces and the bath houses are spotless. They even smelled clean. It is not too far from home and I am sure I will visit it many more times.

Park was safe and secure. All spots were oversized and well taken care of. Park staff was friendly and courteous. We will stay here again when traveling in that area.

Due to work commitments, we don’t get to camp often; but when we do, we usually come here. It’s quiet and peaceful and an excellent place to fish. The camp hosts are very polite and friendly. And the sites are always clean.

Enjoyed our visit to Site 64. The campground is located on basically flat ground along the waterway with many trees, good shade and some animal life. The level concrete site pads make setup easy. Sites are well spaced with plenty of room. There are many amenities in the campground, but they don’t appear to be utilized by the guests much. Many extra parking places. Boat ramp within the campground. The bathhouses are typical of COE and well maintained. The hosts are pleasant, present, and efficient without being overly distracting. We stayed at several COE campgrounds next to waterways and enjoyed watching the boat traffic and barges but here the vegetation along the bank obstructs the view of the water except for only a few sites.
