Could have been epic. New boat, two couples, four days. A head's up on a few things would have been nice before we drove 5 hours to get there. Boating? Be careful, the lake's real low this time of year. Fishing? Oh, sorry, all the tournaments last month depleted the lake. Campsite? Sorry, only some of the sites have been renovated, not yours. Watch your step, the steps down were crumbling so we just ripped most of them out. We survived, but lack of updates / info on website spoiled what could have been great.

Campsite 64 is on the water but has lots of rocks and a huge tree fell into the water which takes up where you’d swim. Campsite 66 was rude and would not allow my children to swim even though we didn’t have much of an area for ourselves due to the tree. Otherwise beautiful place to camp.

What a great spot. Loops A and B have more lakefront sites with actual lake access. Loop C is really just view as you’re well above. Campsites similar to what you would find at a major National park - you can see your neighbors, they’re usually friendly, and most have a gravel tent pad, a fire ring with grate, a picnic table, and a bear hook. This pregnant lady enjoyed the flush toilets.
The only critique would be I wish there was a good online map of the trails! I enjoyed the walking path while my husband did part of the biking.
