A very nice park. We always enjoy our stay at Mott. We were there for spring break and then we’re going to be there for Easter this year.

Lake was beautiful with an awesome sunrise. Easy pull through campsite for camper with electrical hookup, water and table with shade. The site unfortunately was loud with barking dogs and neighbor's playing music with loud bass until 1:30 in the morning.
