The campsite was good and easy to be able to set up. Even though the lake was down a little bit, I still had a view of the water. The bathroom was clean but the only issue was the sink didn’t work well and needs to be addressed. It was nice to relax and enjoy my weekend except for the screaming teenage girls staying at the campsites next to mine.

The campground was not crowded but it was also a very rainy week. Was looking forward to riding the trails, too wet

Campgrounds were well taken care of. The views over the lake were fantastic. It was a great experience for me and my boys on their first camping trip.

Third time bringing a group here. Always lovely, got two sites on the lake and one interior loop. Beautiful view and clean sites. Bathrooms could use a little TLC. Toilet flush valve came out of the toilet and only one sink faucet handle actually let water out. I was expecting to see some signs of Helen impacts, but didn't see any, which was unexpectedly pleasant!

Site 5 was raining acorns this time so I moved, otherwise the campground is wonderful, the other campers quiet and enjoying a well cared for environment. The swimming is fantastic, the bathhouses spotless too. Some cell service too. The staff can’t change sites locally and the call center said they couldn’t either which makes no sense since the rules say they can for a reason that’s beyond anyone’s control. I hope that’s fixed.
