By far the best camping experience we have had. Would love to go back. Very quiet and private access to lake. We still feel like sitting by that lake. Warm water and best for swimming and kayaking. Kids friendly, we had a 6 month boy and a 3 years girl. Both enjoyed a lot.

I know there are rules but but we felt like no one talked or interacted with anyone else. We have been alone in our little bubbles for to long and people were absent. I never even saw coach for 2 weeks we were there.

Quiet, family friendly campground. Some of the best restrooms and showers that I’ve seen in a rural camp. Be prepared for very spotty cellphone service, though. There may be some at the sites near the water, but absolutely none in the upper ones.
