Large flat sites with full hook ups. Most have some shade. Hosts were friendly and helpful. Public bathrooms were clean, but showing their age. Only negative is we had to drive up near Sam A. Baker to find a spot to cool off in the water. We originally booked in September hoping for cooler weather and it was 97 degrees on one of days and 95 on the other.

Campground was one of the best we have stayed in. Sites were well maintained with good spacing between neighbors. The campground was designed with obviously a good deal of thought. Enjoyed our stay here and would come back.
