We stayed in site B6. The site is gravel and 40+ feet long but pretty narrow. We were able to park and level our Shamrock Hybrid very eadiky though. We were also able to fit two full size pick up trucks plus our boat.
B6 is water front but there is ZERO Shade.
The campground host was very nice and welcoming. The water fill and dumpsite are very accessible, there are two dumpsites which is a bonus for busy weekends.
The bathrooms were TERRIBLE. The bathrooms at the main gate are a little better than the shower house near B loop but thats not saying much. BUGS so bad and the smell was aweful. Also extremely hot, no air flow at all. Pretty disappointing.
The campground has a lot of paved pads in the center that folks loving call the concrete jungle.
There are drinking water pumps through out the park which is nice since the sites are power only. No water hook ups.
There is also NO CELL SIGNAL at all.
The heat was a killer this weekend so I did not walk around take any pictures of the park grounds like I usually do .
And since there was no signal my phone stayed off or put up the whole weekend.
Over all its a nice park and the cove was beautiful.
Not my favorite.

The kids really enjoyed camping right by the water. They could go outside and were right at their fishing spot. Everyone was extremely friendly.

We have camped at site A23 many times. It is our favorite campsite. Although the trail down to the lake is a bit tricky, once there, the view makes it all worthwhile. We have fished there with success and there are lots of places to kayak. The site is usually very clean and is somewhat private.
