Blown away by having full hookups at a COE. No real trails due to storm damage, but I was able to get in a lot of hiking throughout the park, and even on the beach. Many of the sites overlook the reservoir with a few interior sites for those unconcerned. We had site 1, which may be the only site I wouldn’t recommend due to its close proximity to site 2. Many other great sites though.

What a beautiful campground! I was on Site 29. I was able to watch sunrise from my door, and sunset from the back of the camper, both views were of the water! Bonus, only advertised electric, but has water AND sewer! A great place to stay! Only stayed two nights. Was going to go visit Memphis, but stayed at the campground and enjoyed the surroundings.

Clean, quiet and peaceful. Some bathrooms do not have hot water; but still nice and acceptable. Thank you.

Site had dried mud clumps all on it from tire tracks. Grass had been cut and was not blown off site. Not real impressed with a dirty site.

19 is easy to back into, just long enough for a 35' fifth wheel and a dually The sewer connection is in the back so you'll need alot of hose There's a steep drop off/grade down to the picnic table area and hardly a flat spot for lawn chairs. Good view of the lake and southern sky, tv reception and cell service with C-spire isn't good

Site 8 is an easy back in with good over the air tv reception and unobstructed view of southern sky and lake There is a big slope on the door side of the camper down to the picnic table so be carefull
