Not much to do, but a very nice quiet place to relax for a few days

There was no constructed trail to the West bath/shower house. I was in space 46 and had to walk through a tent site then bushwack my way through the woods to reach the building. The paper I was handed at the front gate showed another bath/shower house (the East one) with a trail down to the road in the area close to the boat ramp. That trail does not exist.
The online reservation system misrepresented the layout of the campsites. I was expecting a site on the Northwest point, but when I arrived I found site 46 on the West side as if the site layout online shows the sites rotated to the Northeast.

Our favorite local campground! Water activities were a little different this time as the water was lower than usual due to the previous lack of rain. Our campsite was not as clean as it usually is, but still a great place to camp.

Access to the water at the sites by the water and the bathrooms were SO clean I was incredibly surprised! Beautiful site and you aren’t too close to your neighbors.

Camp was nice, quiet and scenic. Our site (11) was large and mostly flat but the entrance and exit were steep and tight curve. We have a 37' camper and crew cab truck and it was really close to get it in and out, I was not sure I would be able to detach and re-attach the truck with the immediate drop angle for the site exit. I had to make two runs on the exit angle to shift the camper so we would not run over the wooden erosion wall at the exit. A short camper would probably not have an issue; our rig is a bit on the long side.
That said we did fit and only needed one set of blocks on the road side to get the camper level. Hookups are at the end of the site which made a short electrical run but took our 50' hose to get the water to reach the front of the camper where our panel is located.
We came prepared and I have a lot of towing experience, so everything worked out fine.
