Great campground, quiet spot. The next campsite is super close to the tent pad though.

Really like this campground. Having been going for years. But the bathrooms are getting terrible. One sink didn’t work in the bathroom….same as last year. Poison ivy everywhere. Bittersweet taking over the woods. So many invasive plant species. The path from our parking pad to the campsite is degrading making it a hazard to navigate.
Motorboats should show some respect and not fly through the cove. In my opinion, motorized boats shouldn’t be allowed in cove.

We had a great site by the lake and the bathroom/showers were clean. Just fyi no hand soap dispensers by the sinks so bring your own.

The site was wonderful and thoroughly enjoyed our time relaxing in the lake! There’s plenty nearby to do as well. Only negative was the showers in A loop. There’s only 2 and both were barely lukewarm. One you had to basically hold in the button the entire time to have water.

Campground site was clean and great views. Unfortunately the woman's bathroom in our loop had a clogged toilet for 2 days while we were there and the women had to use the mens bathroom and then the mens bathroom ran out of toilet paper for half the day. The campground host was very friendly and checked in on us when we arrived.
