We really enjoy the rustic atmosphere and being able to camp right next to lake shore. However, unless we are able to secure site at adjoining cove, we will no longer return until no wake buoys are installed and enforced!!!! Our pontoon was continuously bombarded by the wakes of ignorant boaters all weekend!!!

Campsites were clean. Bath house was clean. Bring good heavy anchor as the waves and wind can shift boats. Fishing was excellent. We caught a largemouth 5 lb bass. 2 channel cats and tons of sunnies. That’s beside the 3 that broke lines!

I rated this very good and not excellent because of the latrined. They smell really bad at certain times of the day. The grass was cut nicely and it was very nice atmosphere. Great family place! It is just a shame that you shut the place down all last year to make a political statement and in the process hurt hundreds of families and ruined their weekends and vacation plans. You still kept the grass cut and there is little to no maintenance beyond that. In fact, you had to make an effort to put the snow fencing around it to keep people out! Shame on you folks for depriving us taxpayers of our own resources. You don't own the place we do. Quit your childish behavior! Take your TDS somewhere else.
