Very nice park and RV sites, beautiful lake but it was too windy the weekend we were there to be outside much. The guys fished from the (rock lined) bank a couple of times. Explored the tiny town of Canton, went to Watonga Cheese Festival, drove an hour to Weatherford to the Stafford Air and Space Museum. All in all a nice place to camp/RV

Love the campground. The sites are nice. Only negative is the stickers. The dogs have a tough time with them.
