The staff are amazing, they will absolutely take care of you. The lake is absolutely beautiful, it’s quiet…a hidden gem. My only disappointment was they have no community water hookups. You have to go in, fill your fresh water (I was missing a drain cap, wasn’t carrying fresh water & didn’t plan to use it.) I was told I had to fill the fresh & couldn’t stay connected to water. I had a splitter, but no. The Park Ranger was nice enough to go to town & buy a drain cap for us…no charge!!! We filled the fresh water & disconnected. Amazing. We extended our stay for 3 more days, but our current site was reserved, so we moved one over. I noticed the new camper in our old site was connected to water the entire 3 days we were there. This is a little frustrating for us. Why were we made to disconnect from city water, but they weren’t? In the same spot we were in? Who likes a week of water from holding? It’s HOT. You can’t get any kind of cold water from a fresh water holding tank when we are in 3 days of heat advisory. So, if you wish to connect to water, this is not the place for you. Everything else was amazing.

Camp sites in the middle, especially the row with #’s in the 50’s on up, Bathroom & Showers need updated.
Some of the sites are dangerous for someone in a camper, they are washed out and drop off sides.

We were not able to use the facility due to flooding the rest rooms and the water was not safe to swim in. I’m requesting a refund please.
