A beautiful campground, well maintained. The camp hosts were friendly and helpful. Our site was level, and it looked like most (if not all) were. One thing I loved was the abundance of campsites for tents, and they had primo locations for a view of the lake. We were not tent camping, but I loved that there were plenty of spaces for everyone.
