I love this campground (especially East because of the sand and easier access to water at lake front sites), however, the pads are in desperate need of upkeep. In my popup camper the pads are so small that my tiny camper barely fits and where our door is the pad is broken and it makes it unsafe to get out without a fall risk. They are far too narrow and broken and many are barely long enough to park your camper and your vehicle (especially since you aren't supposed to park on the grass). The other downside is the stickers. Outside is outside and I understand that. However, at a place where you will probably have many people barefoot and dogs running around your campsite, it make it very unpleasant. We literally were personally pulling up sticker patches from the sand trying to prevent our kids/dogs getting covered. Don't get me wrong, I know that stickers are hard to get rid of but it would definitely make for a more enjoyable stay to a very beautiful area. We have stayed at a few spots here so far and have determined that some spots we just will no longer stay in and if they are the only ones available then we will just go elsewhere (because if the pads falling apart). I do love this campground, but I also see SO much more potential for it with just those 2 issues being addressed.

Spray campsites for sand burrs.

Very clean and peaceful

Corp Of Engineers went above and beyond to take care of us when we were having car problems could not ask for better people glad that they’re working for y’all

We enjoyed our stay here, however, make sure you have an extra long water hose, some of the spigot's are a good distance form the site. Also, be prepared for a lot of sand spurs due to the sandy soil and not treated. The grass in the sites was pretty long and needed mowing, and our dogs were getting spurs in their paws, even in the site grassy area. We were still finding them in our trailer a week later. I know they don't have the funding that State Parks have, but could use a bit of tending. It was very beautiful waterfront scenery and great star gazing at night. Very peaceful, we were pleasantly surprised at the quite. If they could try to do something about the spurs, we will return, but it was too much for our pooches.

My only complaint is how far the water hydrants are from some of the sites. Would have been helpful to have known - would have brought an extra hose. We had to move our motorhome off the pad to get close enough to the hydrant. Love the spot! Will be back next season! Wish you were open all year long!

What started as a stopover will be a destination in the future!! Large sites with concrete or asphalt pads depending on the area. Of course it’s always nice to be right on the lake but in this park even the sites in the woods were massive and wonderful! We stayed on a lake front site and loved this park.

Arrived on a Monday in October so plenty of sites available. Got one on the shore of the lake. The post for the electric was pretty beaten up. Site was clean.

There is much too much distance for water at most of the sites. We had to have 4 hoses for about 120 ft and the site was not as level as it could be. The area was very easy to get to and quiet.

the site was large and the views were fantastic! This place exceeded our expectations.
