Very clean and well kept camp site. All of the sites are flat for easy setting up. The campground hosts do a good job keeping everything in check and are very helpful. Beautiful place to go.

Beautiful park nestled in a forest. Large campsites. Very quiet and peaceful. No traffic noise except the occasional boat. Nice paved walking trails. Saw lots of wildlife. Park is very close to Columbus and easy to get to. If you need supplies, you can find just About anything there. Park employees are very friendly and helpful. The employees keep your campsite very clean. This was our first trip but it won’t be our last!

Satellite TV is unlikely. Most all sites have heavy tree coverage. We were in site 6 and thought our southern pointing dish would find it over the trees but it did not. Site 12 may be the most open spot. Not all sites have sewer hookup. Nice large sites with concrete pad and nicely traveled patio area. Perfect camping if you want a woods feel, quiet and relaxing. Camped in a 45ft motorhome.

No nearby trash containers for sites, and no views of waterway as pics show…very disappointing. Area needs cleaning out from overgrown weeds and trees so waterway can even be seen.
