You won't be disappointed. Large nice camp sites. Full hookup always a plus. Met great people from other states and still had plenty room for social distancing.

Fire pits are always full and the site was full of mud where the trailer was parked and outside both doors of my trailer as well. I never see volunteers actively working on any duties that I would assume are needed to be done to make the campground as desirable as it should be. There’s vehicles always parked in the grass and dogs using the restroom with no one picking up after them it’s just not the campground it was 10 years ago.

Beautiful campground. Loved the full hookups. COE campgrounds are our favorites, and this one did not disappoint.
The only negative we experienced was that the electric voltage dropped to about 105 volts on Saturday afternoon when the outside temperature got up into the low 90's. The campground was nearly full, and everyone was running their A/C's. We were going to the beach at Peoples Creek (nice little swimming area!!), so we turned our AC off because of the low voltage. Our 30A plug was so hot you could hardly touch it, but it didn't melt.
Once the temps dropped in the evening, the voltage came back up to normal.
We really liked Redman Creek, but if the campground is full and the temps are up, keep an eye on your electric voltage!!
