I love staying at Methodist Cove. The boat ramp is great easy access. What I don’t like is the low water trying to get out to the lake. But my biggest complaint is changing all the Camping sites to be reserved I can understand the full hook ups being that way, but the rest need to go back to first come first serve not everyone can plan 2 to 3 weeks in advance to reserve a spot and some people reserve them and then never use them☹️
