Very disappointed with the way the park is run this year the one reason I camp there is the fishing only dock that boats are tying up on and people climbing over the rails and launching kayaks people parking in the road going the wrong way on one way roads there were trailers parked out so far no the pad I couldn't get my trailer by them and the the site was littered with trash will not be camping at hawthorn any more there was no help from the camp host or the the park ranger I spoke to

Nice large campsite. There were racoons running around at night. Beautiful fireflies everywhere. We were in the Electric section and the campsite are pretty close to each other so it’s not as secluded and private if you’re looking for that this place is not for you. Restrooms were clean and not as nasty as other campgrounds I’ve been in so that’s a plus.
