We had a great time. We were late getting to the campground and they were nice enough to call and give us the code to get in. It was very quiet and everyone around us went to bed around 9:00 but us!

We had site 28, very nice site. Had a little trouble leveling but we finally got it. Beautiful, tree covered and serene campground. The trails were closed due to maintenance. We had a wonderful time. We will be back next year.

Best part is the staff specifically Betsy. Very nice and helpful person. The park is quiet with large spacious sites. Could use some maintenance on roads and getting trails back open. Other than that it’s an awesome place.

I was on a great, very private site. Lots of woods and space between many sites. Will definitely go again.

The campsites are large and offered seclusion/privacy. They have 50 amp power and water hook ups but no sewer. Only a dump station. The campground has a narrow drive to the campsites. This is not easily navigated especially with recent heavy rain. Lots of wash out on either side of the drive with sharp turns. Easy to pull a tire off the drive with a 40 foot camper.
