The most beautiful and clean place I have camped (besides Citico Creek). (Both are beautiful.) Bike riding, kayaking, fishing, and even playing volley ball are so much fun to do here. 3 miles worth of hiking/cycling trails.

Kids and adults alike enjoyed playing on the lake, biking and walking on the trail around the lake and around campground, shopping at camp store and all that camping involves. Camp sites are spacious, and restrooms and showers are clean. The only downside to this campground is the cleaning of the restrooms from 8-9 am every morning.
