We did not get to talk to the attendants Very much but what we did was positive and friendly rest rooms were clean and we did not see any litter around the only complaint that we saw was the fire Pitts were not cleaned out all of them had a lot of ashes and some had a lot of butts in them.
It would be nice if there were soap dispensers on the wall like they do in all other public rest rooms. Terry keep bottles of soap available on the sinks but some one would take them part of the time and she would replace after cleaning. We be leave new people have things to learn even though they know the job and it takes a little time to get a quainted to do a better job. The rangers and police officers that come through are all really nice and friendly and very help full they are always trying to make our stay better. Thanks to all Robert Stockton

Used to come here 3 or 4 times every summer as a kid in the 1980's but hadn't been back in probably 30 years. A lot has changed but more has stayed the same. I don't know if it's because the lake is up but there used to be a place that my aunts and uncles would beach their boats but it's all tree lined now and you can't get down to the water like you used to. We used to swim in the cove and skip rocks but you aren't able to do that anymore.

Having said that the grounds are still well maintained, the campsites are great and it's a wonderful place to take your family. I will definitely be back again.

This was one of the only campsites I have ever camped at where it seemed the majority of the other campers were so incredibly loud & rude all day & night long!! We were told when we checked in "you need to make sure to note, know & abide by the green highlighted areas bc these WILL be strictly enforced this weekend." We camped Memorial Day weekend so I was prepared for some loud & obnoxious people. Literally multiple neighboring campsites would yell and scream across the park to others. It was loud during the day with the same majority of the campers yelling & their kids riding drifters & driving RC cars but seemed to be much worse as the night went on. Every night, yelling, cursing & raunchy, inapporpriate music happened most of the time until at least 3 am. One of the "strictly enforced" rules was quiet by 10pm. Nothing was done. Cops & rangers drove through at all hours but nothing changed. People walked though our campsite all weekend long, even though there was really no purpose! We weren't by a lake spot, bathroom or playground. We had adult men trying to scare my kids AT OUR TENT DOOR one night. The campground itself is not well kept. It's very rocky with sticks & branches all over. The vault toilets were more gross than should have been, even after they were cleaned about 7am each morning with loud machines. The site we stayed at was at a slant, to the point the fire pit was hard to use bc the wood would roll around. The picnic tables looked/felt like they were going to collapse. It's a shame bc this could be an amazing park but it is not.
Beyond that

Campground was almost empty since it was Monday and Tuesday. Our site had a beautiful view of the lake. Hosts were very helpful

Very clean campground. The hospitality couple is super friendly and try extra hard to please. Restrooms and showers are very well kept. We have been going there for a number of years and will go again!

We brought our 2 dogs to the campsite with us. When we arrived at the campsite around 2:00 pm, we leashed then up and tied the leashes to trees around our campsite while we set up our tent. Their leashes were tight enough to where they wouldn’t wonder into other camper’s sites. We took notice to other campers with dogs barking while they were being walked around the camp group loop. We later had campers coming right through our campsite, which made our dogs bark. While the park attendant was cleaning the bathrooms by our campsite, she came right up to us, and very rudely told my husband and I that we had to quiet down our dogs, or we will have complaints and be asked to leave the campground. This was at most an hour after arriving to the campsite and was not in the evening hours. Because the park attendant made us feel unwelcome with our dogs, we drove 40 minutes away just to kennel our dogs because we did not want to be kicked out. As soon as we arrived back to the campsite from the Kennel, the park attendant was standing outside the booth entrance. We rolled down our window and told her what campsite we were driving to. She did not say one word to us, just stared us down as we drove through. It was completely disheartening and an awful experience, especially for a campsite supposed to be “pet friendly”. We will not be back.
