Sites are well spaced so your not on top of someone. The great lake offers a lot of out door experiences, Camping store has most anything you need if you left something behind. I had left my life jacket behind, and they offered me one of theirs to use. Friendly HOST campers.

Besides the wonderful scenery, the campground host is the best! They are friendly and let you know they will be there if you need them. This is one of my favorite campgrounds for many reasons. Look forward to next season!
