Great view of lake and access to bath rooms and showers. Plenty of space between sites. Saw an Eagle catching a fish right where we were camping. Lovely time!

Spots are nice and not crammed together. Beautiful views of the lake! The other campers are respectful and quiet. We loved our stay.
They do need to fix a door in the women’s shower so that it shuts. It’s been that way for over a year.

Very nice campground. Good fishing or sailing lake. Be aware you will probably have very spotty phone coverage - not a reflection on campground - just the way it is in the wilderness.

We love ruark east and west. Hoping that the west side and the rest of the east side get updated to 50 amp service.

I absolutely love this camp site. It’s always so clean and has easy access to shower house, bathroom and water for swimming purposes. I almost always never get a single tick on me either and we usually sit in the shade under the trees. Very safe and comfortable
