Sites are small. Navigating a 28ft trailer through the park is tricky due to the narrow roads. The park could use some upgrades. Overall the experience was a good one.The Park Attendants are very nice and very helpful. We may camp here in the future, but for now, we prefer Warrior's Creek.

Clean facilities, and access at the lake was VERY easy for putting in kayaks. Visiting during the summer months when the outdoor drama is being performed in an extra plus. I hope to camp her again. It would make a great camping experience in the fall with the leaves changing color on a football Saturday to visit Appalachian State as well.
