Need stone/gravel around the pad. Edge drop-off is dangerous. New site pictures would help.

This is a nice well-kept Campground. I can’t speak for the bathroom facilities as I never went in them. The lake has been drained for sometime as they’re doing repairs to the dam. Apparently, it’s supposed to be a while before it’s fixed. I was wondering what they’re gonna do about all the vegetation that is grown over the waterline. when I looked it up they were about to start helicopter spraying. What a mess!

While there is no actual lake at this time, the campground is in great shape and getting additional improvements to facilities. The location is perfect for exploring the local area.

I had reserved Site 3, but the electrical post had an open fault. I contacted Recreation.gov on the phone and moved to Site 60. Good, shady site.

We love Hernando Point! It’s always so quiet and peaceful. Morning and evening walks are really nice. We always like watching the eagles around this area. The is an eagle nest between campsite 5 & 6.
My only complaint is that the grass needs to be cut.

It was so nice I extended my stay and starting my second week. Beautiful area and the employees I've met so far have went above and beyond to check and make sure I'm doing ok. Huge props to Benjamin!!
