Let me start off by saying that the views of the lake and the lake access are spectacular.
If you are looking for a family environment that is good for kids and/or people wanting a nice, peaceful and relaxing time, this is NOT the place to go. If you are looking to party and not get any sleep at night, this is definitely the place to go. The campground is very clear that “quiet hours” are 10pm-7am but this is most definitely not enforced. We tried speaking to the campground hosts and they said there was nothing they could do. We spent the early morning (1-2am) asking wasted people to keep it down so we could sleep. That was the first night. The second night we were kept up until 4am. Needless to say we will never return to this campground. Such a shame because it is a gorgeous area.

One of our favorite lake campgrounds. Campground hosts are one of our favorite, too.

The hosts do a great job of keeping the campground clean, in good shape and being a presence. I felt safe as well as my tent and belongings when I had to leave for a few hours. I enjoyed the peace and quiet when no other campers were there... And also met lovely people when there were.

Loop B site 55 was perfect for us. Privacy, a sweet place for our hammock and some lovely sunsets. Water access was a little tricky but not impossible. All is all a lovely trip!

The park was nice and well maintained. Bath house clean. A bit too hot to have such strict generator hours.

Campsite right next to the lake. This time the site was pretty level. Very quiet.

We had an Awesome time. Camp ground and trails are very well maintained! I felt much safer now that they are enforcing the 'No Drunkenness Laws'! And put an end to the loud disruptive parties and conduct during quite hours.

We had a wonderful experience visiting the Jackrabbit campground, plenty of trails to hike, trails to bike, and water sports. Due to the weather, there were not many campers, and appreciate the campground Host checking in with us to see how we were doing. We had the absolute perfect site for us and our needs.
