Every time I stay at Mott, I have a better time. This Labor Day, it rained a couple of times which kept the weather nice, but made the lake and swimming area, a little less enjoyable. I had my RV water heater go out, so I had to use the facilities provided. Overall it did the job, but how can spider webs and Dirt Dober's nest regrow so fast as I'm sure they are cleaned away every day. Maybe a treatment for insects in the bathrooms would help. I always set off a fogger when I return because no matter how hard I try something always tries to come home with me. Can wait until I get another chance to camp at Mott CG.

I would like for the Group Shelter to go back to an overnight stay site instead of a day use site.

Was pretty full, but because of the small size of the park was never to noisy or busy, definitely going back

Our visit to the Park was extremely relaxing and enjoyable. The Parks upkeep and new facilities (restrooms and showers) along with their upkeep and the upkeep of the facility grounds has made it a pleasure to camp in the Park. The only part of the Park that I would suggest needs work on is the asphalt roads and RV sites.
