Site 76 is perfect for our big rig. View from our site to the lake isn't blocked which was nice. Nearby hiking trail that is definitely a must during the fall season. Hostess was awesome.

Beautiful lake views with plenty of green space to walk. Campground is kept clean but the bathrooms need maintenance and updating. No camp store.

Chose the wrong time of year to go (our fault). Spot was great but it rained and was cold the whole weekend. Should have been there the week before while it was warmer and we could get some motorcycle riding in. Will go back.
