Tent camping area only has one bathroom area. The second one has been closed for a long time.

Great facility with good amenities. Multiple bathrooms ensured none were ever busy. Paths were easy to navigate.

Always a great time - this time there were many more tent campers which was a nice change . there was a large youth group at the group site that was a little disruptive early in the morning and later in the evenings but was tolerable. The sites are spaced far enough apart with thick growth between them for some privacy. great trails for walks. Clean facilities.

Was very loud. Campsites were close together and you could hear everyone even when they weren’t trying to be loud. Then there were groups partying all night and setting off fireworks.
