It was sad that the lake had been drained, but understandable that a repair had to be made. It would be great if there were concrete pads under all the picnic tables.

Third time visiting Hernando Point, all different sites. A little tight backing into that site with a 31 ft 5th wheel.

Campgrounds are great, lake was gone due to damn leak. We stayed in #51. Table is on wrong side along with grills. Our grill was broken, fixed the day before we left by a very nice gentleman. We couldn’t cook out since the table is right next to the sewer line. My only complaint. We have stayed here several times.

Love the new sign at the front with the name & hours! Now you just need to add signs inside the campground showing the site numbers. ;)
