We stayed in the pine Loop under the trees. Always a delightful experience. There is enough room between every campsite so that you’re not on top of each other.

I’ve been camping there all my life. Everything was good, except for the mosquito part. It was so awful we all got thousands of bites. We left a day early because we can’t stand it.

Great family time with 4 generations
Crew did an excellent job getting campground ready to open after a long delay due to eagle nesting in the area

The electric hook up was very poor with the breaker blowing at least 4 times per day and a wasp nest inside the breaker box which stung me several times during the week we spent there. we had to run our generator several times because of the breaker keep tripping. I am handy capped and we were on a handy capped site. We won't be back

Aside from all the bugs it was a great experience. My 2 grandchildren were bit all over their bodies. We even bought bug spray for the ground and their bodies but still kept getting bit. I think since the grass was not cut much before we got their due to the eagles nest the bugs were worse than normal. But the kids enjoyed riding their bikes and swimming in the lake. Very nice place to camp

First, this is a great campground, nicely wooded areas, clean and surrounded by the lake. That said, I wish they could add some more restrictive rules regarding generator usage (or maybe open up more sites with electric). We've had several visits somewhat ruined, where we tent camped at one the nicer lakeside lots (43) and had a large camper right beside us that ran one of the loud generators from morning until quite time. I'm not blaming them, because again, it's a nice site and they really didn't break any rules, but maybe rules could be added to limit usage more or the sound level of the equipment. Thanks

Take Exit 4B (formerly Exit 1) off I-80 and follow Route 18 north about 6 miles until you cross the lake's causeway. The park is on the left, but this is a divided highway. Continue north about 1/4 mile, take the Birchwood Drive exit, make the turn-around and go south on Route 18. Before you cross the causeway again, make a right onto West Lake Road and travel approximately 1/4 mile to the park entrance on the left.
