This is a very pretty wooded area. It would have been more enjoyable if it hadn’t been 92 degrees with 80+ % humidity. The gate attendant told us to take one of unoccupied sites 3-6, since our reserved site 2 hadn’t been vacated by the previous camper. She couldn’t have been nicer.

Loved the campground and the way it is setup. Lot 59 is a waterfront site set back a bit with a path down to the water. Most sites are pull through, although if you have a large trailer it would be best to back into some of them.

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.
