We loved this campsite. Being on the end of the row gave us plenty of space without being right next to other campers. It has a large covered concrete picnic table as well. There is also a charcoal BBQ available. Easy access and plenty of afternoon shade. Not right on the waterfront but a pretty view of the lake. The restrooms and showers are a little bit of a walk but not too bad.
