Although we were using COE campgrounds as safe, overnight sites with electricity, while traveling, this one stood out as one near a busy business district that one could go for groceries, restaurants or other shopping while still being in a quiet campground.

One of the nicest parks we've ever stayed in. We had a waterfront site and the view was outstanding. Everything about the park was first class. Highly recommend. Will stay again next time we are in the area.

Due to a water main problem, I had to accept another location rather than the one I reserved. Did not like the location nearly as much as the one I wanted but it was ok. Staff was accommodating and friendly as usual.
