Fantastic camping in the early week, but the mousquitoes were horrendous! Other than that, the water was fantastic, freezing cold, but clear as crystal! And the sites were nice and clear and had awesome amenities!

We loved this CG. The only reason I did not give it a 5 star was the mosquitos were so bad the first 3 days (until they sprayed) that you couldn’t stay outside. The camp attendant was great and kept us informed on why there was a delay in spraying. Partially due to weather. This is a beautiful place to stay.

So many mosquitoes, signage said they were going to spray, but that didn't happen. Then we chose a weekend on which one day it poured rain. We still had a nice time.
