Very clean and spacious sites. Great nature with beautiful hiking trails. Friendly Host just as you enter the campground. It's a little hard to find.

The camp host was extremely cordial & very helpful in registering because of weak cell phone signals at the location

Very nice position! It has a small village nearby, so that you don't feel lost, but at the same time it is completely immersed into nature, on the shore a nice lake. The shower building is really nice, and provides all comforts.

Algae bloom in Lake made it off limits for swimming.
Bathroom was shut down one morning. We ended up leaving campground after only 1 night. Had Paid for 2 nights.
Not a scenic or pretty campground as I had expected from reviews.
