Our stay at Methodist Cove Park was very enjoyable. There is a lot of space between campsites, and each campsite has a huge amount of space for parking a boat and/or multiple vehicles. The little town of Alma which is just a couple miles down the road has an awesome grocery store that had everything you would expect to find in grocery stores in much larger towns. We asked one of the groundskeepers if she could tell us where to buy firewood. She said we just needed to pick up the firewood that previous campers had left behind, and said she would pick some up for us if she found any. When we got back to our campsite later that day we found some firewood stacked next to our fire pit. The next morning we enjoyed our coffee next to a nice campfire because of her kindness. The whole campground was peaceful and quiet all week long, and I'm sure we will camp at Methodist Cove many more times in the future.
