Previous to this trip, we had a site booked in Deer Run, we had to move to another campsite because the bathrooms were gone, went down to the small bathroom and there were 4 people waiting to use it....
This last time, we camped in Cedar Run, we had to wait almost 20 minutes because the host wasn't there at the check in at 3:00 as posted. There were a line of cars waiting. The woman with short red hair got snippy with me when I said I waited 20 minutes along with the line of people behind me. The toilet in CR was closed because it was clogged...took two days to repair.
i don't understand why they tore down the bathroom in Deer Run...this was a "safe" area when bad storms come through. Because of the tornado that came through a couple of years ago, not sure where people need to go in an emergency.

Spacious RV lots. Nice trails. However showers are 1.5 miles away & restrooms are 2,000'ft away. Cell service is sketchy. Water access trails need a rope to help with steep, wet, muddy, rocky climb from lake to eroded trail landing.

Picnic Shelter was very dirty. Water Hydrant was broken. No Trash Can. Very Difficult to Clean for a Large Party without water & trash. Phones & messages go un-answered. Had to drive to main office to get someone to clean. Why are restrooms over 300' uphill from picnic shelter?

The campground is beautiful and site 28 felt private and was shady by mid afternoon. Cons: fire ring was 2/3’s full of ashes. Park guy came upon our request and shoveled out a bucketful. However he left at least another bucket worth behind. Also really wanted to swim in the lake but if you don’t have a boat there’s not good access to it from the campground. The trails leading down to the lake are treacherous. Lastly, internet access was nonexistent. Was told the cell towers had been on the showers that they’ve removed. And only five channels available via antenna.
