Could’ve been a more level spot with the new campers just getting bigger and bigger, but I made it work, friendly campground host, very well patrolled (park rangers and sheriffs). Overall very good experience.

Camp host is the best! Spots are pretty ideal. Everyone from the host, park rangers, and even DNR are super friendly and helpful!

Granted it rained a lot. The site prep on the sites for the remodel was pretty poor. There was not any compaction done to the sites. Campers and tow vehicles were sinking and leaving ruts before the rain even started. The sites were not leveled, causing many people to use blocking or dig down. Using excessive blocking is going to result in an accident or mishap someday. Navigating the area nearly requires hiking boots for all of the uneven terrain and rough campsites. Hydroseeding needs to be done. Areas of drainage should not pool right outside of a camper, but instead be taken all the way to the shore, then rip rapped or have the necessary erosion control put into place there.

The power upgrade was great. I do like the positioning of the sites, and the extra parking space. The Rangers are awesome. I felt safe the entire time with the presence from the Rangers and the Local Sheriffs Dept.

Policies & Rules

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.

Fires & fuel

  • No outside firewood is allowed due to invasive insect concerns.
  • Buy firewood locally and burn it on-site to protect forests from pests.
