Great atmosphere. Wonderful campground :) Will definitely be camping there again!
There is no firewood available at the campground. But there is a convenience store called "Puddle Jumpers" that is only about an 8-10 minute drive away that sells firewood bundles and other basic necessities. There is also a Dollar General grocery store about the same distance away :)

The site was of good size. I wish it would have been full hook up. Stopping on way out to dump is a little annoying. For $40 a night I would expect it. The bathhouses could use some updating. Felt like a prison shower. The marina was right next door. The restaurant had great food and service. Overall, 3 out of 5 stars.

We love this campground, but site 46 has very limited shade and it was very hot during our stay. I will select a different site when making future reservations. The lake view is great and lots of grass space if you camp with dogs.

This spot has a great view of the lake and lots of open space to walk to the beach and to get the dogs out of the camper. Showers are pretty close and in decent shape. Brightness at the showers brought lots of bugs, but whatever. Camp host was very friendly.
