This lot is nice. Secluded, a short walk to the lake and trail, water spicket on edge of lot. Restrooms were very clean. Got there Thursday. Friday evening there were a good amount to kids with families that came in so that kinda broke the nature silence vibe. Overall its a great campsite
Will return .
