The campground was fantastic. Great, wide sites and the concrete pads offer plenty of parking for rig and cars. The mature trees were in peak fall colors and the trails on the grounds were terrific. Our site didn't have much AT&T service, but many of the sites nearby had reasonable service. We had a great time and will come back.

Second stay & we loved it again! We love the concrete updated sites & small size of the campground. This time we walked the loop trail daily with our pup…the fall trees were so lovely. The camp hosts are helpful & nice. Only downside was that we stayed near the bathroom to accommodate our friends who have a smaller camper & the lights outside the bathroom were very bright throughout the night.

Site was beautiful with views of the woods and the lake. Only disappointment is that there is no playground for younger kids.

Very nice campground, well kept and seems to have been recently updated. Nice concrete pads, many have double wide pad for parking. Some sites have a grade not suitable for larger rv.
