We were disappointed that our site had recently been graded and most of the trees removed. Thank goodness it wasn’t raining or, we would have been camping in a mud pit.

Park and park keeper were among the best. Had an electrical problem that resulted in entire outlet exchanged; fixed within a couple hours. Plenty of room between sites and space to enjoy. Property well kept. Steep decline to the beach area and more mud than water. Lake was no more than 2-3 feet deep with at least as much mud. Not great for boats. Lots of birds to watch.

The campground is in excellent condition, and it would be an easy decision to return again in the future. The only downside is that you may be disappointed about the lake view. This was due to lower than expected lake levels. I am not sure if that normal, but it made an impression on my visit. The good thing is that it is a short drive to other areas of the lake other lake activities.

- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.

Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
