Incredibly hard to reserve a site and the weekend we're there, its a full construction zone. Heavy machinery, trucks in and out of campsites doing 5 point turns, terrible noise, and you get the picture. I am all for updates and improvements to the campsite. But close it for 1/2 the season and do the entire campsite all at once without interrupting a campers experience. The workers were actually great and really hustled to get the project done on Saturday, which we all SO appreciated. But whoever gave the OK to do work while campground is open should take their family out there to camp while the excavators are running. After making reservations 6 months out, it was a disappointing experience all around.

Lovely little lake, campground was generally quiet, though there’s a fair amount of traffic coming and going around the lake. Good amount of shoreline, mostly all small, rounded rocks, so bring some cushion for your bottoms! Site 9 is very close to site 10, with no trees or bushes to provide privacy - would be a great pair of sites for families/friends to book together. The site is also right along the road to the lake, which makes for a short walk but a bit busier of a location.

Beautiful lake and campground. But nowhere on the reservation form mentioned construction of all new vault toilets in the campground. I'm sure they were very much needed, but we would have chosen a different time to visit had we known about the construction. Very noisy from 7 am to around 7 pm. We had reserved for 2 nights but chose to leave early after just 1 night.

We went in June, so it wasn’t super busy. And the bathrooms were under construction! But, it was a clean campground and the sites are pretty good…. They aren’t right on top of each other. Overall, it was a great experience and I will go back!

Great spot overall. We were in group site 1. It was lovely, lots of trees. Important to note that you can't fit big vehicles or campers there- we had 4 midsized vehicles and it was a tight fit. Also, there's really only tent spots for 2 tents (and not even big ones). The other group site (8) has much more space (and parking) so something to consider.
Overall, it was an incredible weekend. Gorgeous views, chill atmosphere, lots of kids running around on bikes. It was wonderful.

Even though I put my specs in for our camper, our camper and truck would not fit in the space. We had to rebook another spot and cancel the one we had. What a mess.
