This place is manicured like a golf course! It’s absolutely beautiful. Most sites have an awesome lake view, the bathrooms are super clean and some fixtures seem to be new, some sites have full hookups and… wait for it… no noise after 9pm. We’re going back. My only complaint is the lack of a campground store and nowhere is there a Defeated Creek sticker!
