Only one bath house was open and it was hard to get into. We were not told of the construction or the closing of 2 other bath houses. Otherwise we enjoyed the lake and trip.

Beautiful place to stay-lots of lake front sites. One unexpected plus was the use of the free clothes washer and dryer next to the shower/bath house!!

We were right on the water & enjoyed our morning coffee looking out at the lake. The volunteers were friendly & a wealth of information. The sites were clean & there were dumpsters close by for our garbage. The day we were leaving a crew came around, & checked & cleaned out the on site grill & fire ring of any ashes. We also found a good size grocery store close - a few miles north of the campground. We have Verizon cell phone service & never dropped a call.

Love this location but this year was a bit different than other years. Dock at boat launch is gone. This needs to be replaced. Bathrooms were not cleaned daily. Every other day is not enough for main bath to be cleaned. Making the reservation this year was extremely hard to get a spot. Hopeful next year will be better. The lake and people were wonderful as always
