Beautiful camping destination, right on the water. Ideal if the weather is cool enough to control insects, which it was during Thanksgiving.

The host, Tonya was extremely kind and welcoming. The whole campground, our campsite and the bathroom were very clean and quiet. It has beautiful walking trails and areas to see the water. There were very little bugs, if any. I believe this is the best time of year to go!

The campground was beautiful, quiet, clean and Tonia was a wonderful host. Even though it’s dry camping, the hut bathrooms were clean, well stocked with toilet paper and didn’t smell at all. There were water spigots to fill your water jugs close to a few sites. The sites were large, clean and quiet. We didn’t have firewood to start and Tonia was sweet enough to give us a few starter logs until we were able to run to Walmart and get some. We went for an early trip for my husband’s birthday and learned that Tonia shared a birthday with my husband. We went in early October and bugs weren’t an issue and no problems at all. Hands down the nicest dry camping campground we’ve stayed in. We will definitely be back.

Definitely should have mentioned that there wasn’t a ‘beach’ to access the water. Was bummed by that. tarantula sized spiders sent us packing. Was there and unloaded, walked to the ‘water’ and walked right back, packed up and it was all said and done in less than an hour. Sorry but there is no way I will return there. Ever. Unless it’s burned down first.
The camping spots were nice size 🤷🏻♀️

Policies & Rules
Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
