Very well maintained and beautiful campground! Camp sites are really far apart which was nice. This is a very quiet and peaceful place to visit and the camp host was very helpful and friendly.
We had a beautiful waterfront RV site and were able to launch our kayak and canoe right from the bank where we were camping. Will definitely visit again!

Very relaxing park. The lake is easy to walk around and many places to stop relax or fish. The swimming area was lots of fun. We wish there were more walking trails, however the park has excellent bike trails. The RV sites were very spread apart and we felt like we had our own slice of the forest. We enjoyed our time and look forward to returning.
