An absolutely beautiful camp! Good hot showers and clean bathrooms. Grass was well kept and lake access from camp pads were clear of debris and overgrowth. Camp manager and other staff were amazing and dealt with any issues in a timely manner without any complaints. Couldn’t ask for a better go to for quick whole family camping. I’ll be back for years to come!!

We had such a fantastic time, it was perfect for children and the staff was amazingly helpful when something important was left at the site by accident. months later our kids still talk about their trip to the lake and ask when about when we are going back.

The new camp host was great unlike the rude disrespectful one that was there the year before and the beginning of the season. Glad the Recreation Service took the complaints serious and did something. I will be coming back for my 9th year of camping there!

Nice park on the lake. Research sites carefully, many sites near the shore have difficult access. Many sites have very little shade as well.
