The Jones Pavilion had a lot of bird droppings near table where the electric was located, one of our classmates had to go get a bucket of water, broom to clean up the area. The rest of pavilion was decent, that was our only complaint regarding the pavilion. We were able to enjoy our day.

Great place to stay when itβs hot because the outflow mist cools everything down. This is a great, clean campground.

This is a small campground with lots of beautiful trees and great birdlife! The campsites are right next to each other, so it feels like an RV park, but we still had a lovely stay here and would happily stay here again if in the area.

Camp hosts do great job of cleaning fire rings, etc. Grass around the campground is cut in a timely fashion. Showers are clean and hot.

Great location with a lot of fun options to do that is close to the camp ground. Locust 28 was a very nice site location.

If you are going while itβs raining take some rubber shoes. The sites flood and water does not drain very well. We had to dig ditches to get the water out of our sites. There were quite a few sites that were flooded. We did stop rangers and complained to them and they brought more gravel in but that only solved the problem temporarily. They need to update alit of the sites with new drainage and gravel.

Lots of rain and high water release from dam made fishing difficult. No campground host and bathhouse needed to be cleaned more often. Campground needs more full hookups and maintenance on electrical system.

The sites were kept nice and neat. There had been a lot of rain, but they went and cleaned up the sites. They are all nice and level sites. Restroom were kept clean.
