Many visitors enjoyed their stay, highlighting the spacious, shaded sites and the park's family-friendly atmosphere. However, the park lacks reliable cell service and WiFi, which some guests found inconvenient, and there are occasional cleanliness issues that management is encouraged to address.

The entire campground is so clean and spacious. The facilities are clean and well maintained. The sites are nicely spaced and so many are at the water’s edge. The entry is staffed and gated. We were in site 6, very level, water view, close to the playground and off the main road. No septic at site 6, but many do have it. It’s a must stay!

When you take the trail to the top of the hill, pay close attention to the sign that says easy trail and hard trail. It means it. Park is well maintained campsites are great. The ones in the lake have a wonderful view. People in the booth were the most friendly.
