We had a fantastic time and made friends. We enjoyed the different kinds of birds and the beautiful sunsets. Everything is kept so clean and the employees and volunteers are so friendly and helpful.

Beautiful area. Some sites are hard to back into, that could deter me from coming in the future. Otherwise, great.

The lake and the campsites are pretty nice. And so are the bathrooms. There are only two recommendations: First, it was a difficult to find the trash dumpsters. We finally found them when we went on a hike. The other concern is the water. When we arrived at our campsite, the ground was pretty wet near the water spout. I thought it was due to the rain. There are even five concrete steps so we didn't have to walk in the mud. The next day, that whole area was flooded and stayed that way throughout our stay. It looks like there are several leaks around the water spouts in the campground. None the less, it is a nice facility.

Great location! Would bring a longer water hose, shared water, it can be longer distance than most campgrounds.

- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.

Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
