Plenty of space at each site. Non electric sites still have access to a shared water faucet between two sites, very helpful. It was a beautiful peaceful experience. We'll definitely be back. One set of restrooms still out if order near campsite 5 so make plans around that.

Love this park. Have camp her in the past, will continue to camp her. Park host we very friendly and helpful. With a plethora of trails, hiking is ideal (also part of the LSHT). The lake level was low, which was unusual, but it’s been hot with little rain this year. The park is clean and well maintained. As I said before, will absolutely return, highly recommend this park if your looking to unplug from the city, or life in general.

It’s is a nice and quite camping area, but we did get lucky and not have anyone around for Labor Day weekend. Fishing was just ok, but the water is low like everywhere else right now.
Nice walks to the lake or around the lake, didn’t do the bike trails at all. We will definitely be going back

We had a nice time and the park was very nice. Hosts where amazing. Friendly and laid back. Didn't have any problems the entire time. My only complaint was the showers in our closest restroom where not working and the lack of parking due to day use visitors. I feel like maybe a certain amount of parking spots should be reserved for campers. It's a bummer to pay the extra money to camo but then have all the spots taken to day use and have to walk from down hill. Otherwise, wonderful place.
