This place is awesome for family fun and very kid and pet friendly. The camp Host are great. How ever if you bring a watercraft beware the fishermen that like to fish around your watercraft. We had a hook in a seat last year and no one wanted to fess up to it. It's a real shame the money the campground brings in from the campers the rangers don't want to do anymore to stop the rude fisherman from fishing around thousands of dollars of water crafts. Otherwise the campground itself is great.

A more versatile cell service would be appreciated in case of emergency.

I’m from New York and this was an amazing get away from the city. The other campers are respectful and the grounds are taken care of beautifully, they are kid friendly and relaxing. I am thinking of setting up another trip, this time without my children and husband and just my sister-in -law and myself.

Having a campsite on the water was great. Good lake for kayaking. It would be nice if all bathrooms included showers. We enjoyed a fun side trip to Pine Creek bike path.

Full hookup site near the water was one of the best we have visited.
