Great place for our family of 5 with young kids. Plenty of trails to walk and bike on. Definitely recommend bikes to take full advantage of the many trails you can do. Campsite and area was clean. Only downside is the lake is full of overgrowth, but still a fun and easy place to get to.

Campsite was clean but park needs general maintenance, roads parking lots etc. sites are pretty close together so better be ok with neighbors. Bathrooms were not very clean either.

Fantastic campground, great camp hosts. Site #15 was not suitable for my Class B RV, so Host switched me to site #8, much flatter driveway, one of several first-come-first-served non-reservable sites. There are amazing hike/bike trails surrounding this lake. Biked all trails over my 3-day stay. Very peaceful.

Great campground, wonderful camp hosts. Site #1 is extremely sloped, not suited for my Class B RV, so Host got me switched to Site #8 which is flatter and one of a number of first-come-first-served non-reservable sites. There are fantastic hike/bike trails surrounding this lake. Biked all the trails over my 3-day stay. Very peaceful.

Spot 1 - very private- tree coverage on both sides even in December so I couldn’t see other campers. Water view.
