Joyce was wonderful to work with. Want to give her a shout out. Shower house was clean and well maintained. People were friendly and very helpful. if you want a FF spot, recommend going on a Wednesday as by Thursday night, all units with electricity were spoken for.

Excellent Camp Site. Would like to see more sites with full hookups that don't require reservations.

The first night was good, but then the rain started and the entire camp site was flooded. So we left a day early.
