Toilets were a bit smelly, but there were hardly any other campers there first week in October. A bit of smoke from the nearby Cedar Creek fire in the afternoon/evenings, but with the mornings' east wind, all was clean and bright!

Beautiful mellow campground. Good boat ramp, fishing. Lots of trees, trails. Private spaces and open spaces. Lake is beautiful.
Road has some huge potholes. Bathroom smelled of strong urine. Other than that, it was pretty much perfect. We will be going back.

A beautiful area with an aging campground that is heavily used and tough to reserve a favorite site.
Too bad more of the user fees are not used to repair potholes in the roadway as well as the rails of the fence leading to the foot bridge etc. The boat launch has a large hole washed out in the ramp by boaters powering onto their trailers, making loading or off loading near the dock difficult for boaters who choose not to load this way. There is also confusion on user fees for campers using the ramp, are launch fees included in the camping fee, Are trailers left in the parking area by campers subject to the daily fee?
Having said all that, we'll be back, if we can book one of our favorite sites.
