Very nice campground, sites not spaced close together. Shower house and restrooms clean. Close to waterfront for fishing. Nice swimming beach across the road. Water not in each site, but hydrants located around the campground. We enjoyed our stay, and will return again.

Normally I would give it 5 stars, but there was an issue with the power, and ours was out for most of Saturday. Luckily it was nice outside in the shade and they got it fixed before bed time.

I have camped here several times and usually love it. I really liked this spot with easy access to the water. However, the people camping across the pathway from me partied all day/night and had at least 6 vehicles parked with bright lights and 2 pitbull dogs not chained up or leashes just roaming others campsites. Drunk couple fighting and cursing and throwing things was not a good experience for my small dog and I. Park ranger really needs to patrol the sites better as this was ridiculous, especially with families and kids camping around them. I’ll attempt to not let 1 bad experience ruin it for me, but there was no such thing as ”quiet hours” after 10pm.

Policies & Rules
Arrival & departure
- A camping permit is required and must be obtained at the park booth. Limits apply to equipment and vehicle parking.
Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
