We had to move pur reservation and when we dod it didn't do the same amput of days so we ended up in a non electric sote eith 2 small babies when it was 90 degrees outside. When i asked the hag at the front gate she was extremely rude and snapped at me. We went back up to ask about a few different sites and they told us that if we didn't have an opinion either go home or go in a non electric. We had asked about sites people didn't show up for and they told us they would kick us out if we went in the empty site. The bath house was closed and the dump station was a mess because the camper is lower then the dump station. In the loop we where in it said you could fit a 55 ft camper and out 35ft and truck hardly fit and it was hard to get into.

We love going to Shenango Lake every year. It is a beautiful area to camp,fish and spend time with family. The only thing I would suggest Is that they need to remodel their bathrooms we had days of rain and the womens bathroom on Old Duck loop had rain coming through ceiling and the showers are not bad but are kinda disgusting they really need to remodel them I would also suggest putting a wash room with washer and dryer this would help seeing there are no laundromats open anywhere near the camp
