Nice smaller COE managed campground with well-kept toilet and shower facilities. Thumbs up for a separate handicap/family accessible toilet and shower - It was appreciated. Minimal Verizon service and the road noise from the bridge can be distracting at times.

The showers were horrible.. no ventilation in there. It felt like a sauna, no way you could dry off after a shower. Had to go back to the tv to dry off!!It was our first time there and I picked a spot with NO shade. If we go back it would have to be early spring or late fall.

The recreation.gov website has “Full Hookup: 50” listed for site 14, which led me to believe that the site had 50 amp electric, water and sewer. But only the host site has a sewer hookup. Had I come for my originally planned 12 day stay this would have been very inconvenient. As I had to change to an eight day stay it was okay. The campsite is small and right on the highway, which makes it a bit noisy. There is nowhere to walk other than the small loop and the boat ramp parking lots, but otherwise it is nice and well maintained.
