Park host are very nice. Campground is nice. Not all sites have working electricity and most are only 30amp. But we still had a good time.

The campsite was the almost closest to the water. It was also the second or third closest to the the boat ramp. Which if your in a kayak you better watch out for high speed boats and daredevil jet skis. The one complaint is lack of mature trees for shade. The bathrooms were clean and lockable which is great compared to some. The people involved with camp security Ann, Linda, and Andrew were amazing! They drove though every hour to check campers and Andrew especially saved me a probably horrible evening of non registered guests. The police and park rangers were also seen several times which was comforting!

The most horrible place we've ever been. They don't cut the grass, poor maintenance. There's nothing to do, not even fishing, swimming, nothing. I've been here since Tuesday night when we arrived, and I wanted to give it a try until today Thursday, that they would at least cut the grass. Nothing to it. There's not even a place to stay other than inside the RV. A lot of spiders, mosquitoes and we can see snakes. Dont waste your time and money. Looks like abandoned place.

The park was nice overall. The roads definitely need some work—probably because of all the rain, there’s a lot of erosion. Only one shower worked, and it was cold. The bathrooms were clean, though. The bottom of the grill by the picnic table was totally rusted out. Honestly, this park could use a serious revamp—it’s kind of falling apart. We’ll stay again since it’s pretty and close by, but it’s in desperate need of some TLC.

Very quiet at this park even on weekends. Of course most sites are inoperable, like over half. So if you want to get some rest this is place to head for. Most sites require you to level RV. Park was kept up well, except so many sites are inoperable. Probably go back if I can get a certain site. I was at park for 2 weeks.

The camp site was clean and well maintained. I had plenty of shade - which was needed as t was hot. The bathrooms were clean, but some ran out of toilet paper. It was memorial Day weekend and I think some day people used unpopulated camp sites and caused over use. I would say that was my one criticism - that there was no checking up on anyone. There was not even anyone at the gate when I arrived (that's probably due to dodgy doge's illegal firings - so I don't fault the workers for that)

We went camping during May, We had trouble finding spots to put our tent due to them cutting the grass and just leaving the grass there. It was full of spiders my toddler had to be rushed to the hospital from getting bite our entire tent was full of them. The last day we camped the landscapers came back to cut the grass again the men didn’t even let us know what they’re going to cut the grass AGAIN, grass was everywhere in our food just everything. If you decide to camp just call ahead and ask how the campground are.

The site was slanted and the blacktop was old and uneven. The amenities such as the picnic table and overhead were old and rusted. This was compensated for by the beauty of the location and the close proximity to shopping.

Got to the campsite at Sunset on Friday night. It had rained all day and was still sprinkling. The ground was saturated pretty badly and so it was muddy. The Camp hosts were friendly and accommodating. This was my first time there and I enjoyed it thoroughly. It was nice to have showers & restrooms there, but I couldn't get the hot water to work. Maybe it was a user error. Anyway, I would come back, but possibly plan for a little mud.
