We went camping this fall after the park is closed down to one loop and it was Beautiful and Peaceful . Joe and Sandi the host are super people . The only thing that was missing was the presence of rangers patrolling the loop . Awesome place to camp in the summer months with fishing , boating and jet skiing. We will be going back !! Thank you, Joe and Sandi, for all you do !!

Very nice camp
Only negative comments are about the bathroom
There was no shower. If the bathroom has running water in the fall, it should has shower accommodations

Very nice campground at the lake. Quiet although there is a little noise from the road across the lake. Clean restrooms with flush toilets. I didn’t find anywhere to buy firewood so I ended up using nearby deadwood.
