Sites are shady and forested. The lake is accessible with a boat ramp. Pit toilets only. I wish there were more maps and signs. We took a wrong turn coming in and had to back up the camper a long way. We also didn’t know about a gorgeous trail we happened upon our last day.

The campground is primarily there for fishing. There was no fish cleaning station. The ramp is poor and doesn't have room for more that one boat at a time. No firewood available on site. My site was extremely difficult to back my boat into.

Excellent. We could tell there had been some tree and road maintenance. THANK YOU SO MUCH. Camp host was great. Mornings greeted us with birds chirping and the sounds of Eagles in the distance. A very pleasant campground.

Despite it being Independence Day weekend, the vibe was relatively low-key. Mostly fishermen out in the morning, with lakefront homeowners boating around in the afternoon. Still calm enough to enjoy kayaking and paddleboarding, and plenty of other campers were out doing the same. The host was friendly and made sure our stay went smoothly. Nights were cold, but the daytime weather was perfect. Would definitely come again!
