We had a very good camp this past time (11 - 15 Jul 22/site 111). I want to commend the camp host, they did a very good job, even stopped by and cleaned our firepit. We had no rain during our camp, but the mosquito's were quite bad, wished they would have sprayed in the beginning of the week. We used up three cans of spray. The team did come by and spray Friday while we were packing up to depart. Other than that the campground is very well kept and all the staff we had contact with were very professional and courteous. We will be back, really like the area. Thank you for taking care of this campground, it is great. LEE AND MARLENE SCHOFFSTALL

Extremely clean campground and well maintained. Restrooms were extremely clean and new. The grounds were well taken care of, and hosts were great! The volunteer who took us through the fish hatchery was wonderful, spent 2 hours with us.

Mosquitos are awful!!! There needs to be more spraying. The bathroom is always disgusting in loop 3. It was full of bugs, no soap. However, the bathroom in loop 2 is always clean! Why is that?? Why do we no longer have bingo and movies??? The kids and adults look forward to it.
