It was probably the quietest campground we ever stayed at, and we've been cross I
Uh country twice. Bath house needs to be totally redone, the hosts due there best keeping it up, but you can only polish a turd so much.

Nice place on the IC Waterway. Clean and quiet. Older facility that supposedly will be closed in 2025 for reconstruction.

Amazing icw views! Very clean sites. It was really nice to have hot showers. Quiet, peaceful location . I’ve camped here several times and love the proximity to the national forest.

Campground location is nice, however conditions were less than ideal. Dump station appeared flooded (there had been recents rains). We were close enough to hear gurgling from septic at night. Needless to say, not inviting for a campfire. Dump station closed notice was posted on white board by host station only. Small enough grounds to have notified campers! We left early due to conditions. Dump station did open after a few days but campground need serious update.

Nice camp site. The nats were terrible. We cut our visit short by five days because of them. We couldn’t sit outside without being bitten. I got over 40 bites in three days.

Enjoyed our stay , restrooms were clean. Our tent site was fine but saw the one beside us had standing water after a hard rain. Overall it’s a nice, mostly quiet campground.
