Stayed at tent site T204. Right near the restrooms. Just fyi everything seemed uphill. We chose this site because of its location and it not having as many levels of stairs. Electric service two seperate 20 amp plugs. Tent pad was 15.25' x 16.16'. Lots of motor boat traffic.

Nice full hookup campsites with a good view to the west of the lake. Nearby bathhouse and playground. Great place if you have a boat and like to fish.
Most of the sites have an open view to the sky. Deer wander trough the camp during the evening. We had more than enough room for our 30 foot trailer and attached tow vehicle. Television and Verizon reception was good. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Camp host were very friendly. RV spots were very nice. There is a snack store at the main road less than a mile from the campground, but if you need something more a Dollar General less than a block from there.

- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee.

Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
