Great area right at the edge of the lake.
Very shaded and quiet. Adequate shower house and bathroom and boat ramp at the end of the road. Can’t wait to go back!

Great park. I just disagree with the tent rule per campsite due to have such a big single family. Family of 6 and kids cant have there own tents. We had 1 extra tent and they threw a fit and made us buy the campsite next to us to accommodate it. Otherwise great time

Seemed strange with no Camp Host on site. I found it quite and the Weather was not real bad during my stay. I followed the Honesty Rule by paying cash for my stay. Everything was working on the Site and my stay was great.
