We have fallen in love with this place becasue it's so close to home and work but also a great escape. We love our endless walks around the grounds, cooking outside, and just enjoying the family. Even without the lake, we enjoy it. Fishing in the pond has also become one of our favorite things to do.

Campground was clean and well taken care of. We love the fact that sites are not right next to each other. Plenty of room to back our 35’ rig. We knew the lake is being worked on so would imagine the view will be much better when it’s back. We didn’t use the bathhouse facilities so cannot rate.

We stayed in Site 8, and the view over the river was beautiful! It would be even better if there was some water in the lake. This site is very nice, just have to be careful of the drop-off from the driveway to the remainder of the area. My wife actually fell down the slope, so be careful if you stay here. Other than that, this is very nice campground. Always clean and well kept.
