A neat campground that is very quiet and not that busy and one of the easiest to book for the summer. The lake does flucuate in level so it's not like timothy lake or frog lake. No water or cell service and the road was rough coming in so definitely a higher clearance vehicle is needed. Kids had a ton of fun. Host was very kind.
