The camp grounds are starting to show wear, there are several trails closed, due to maintenance needs, obvious funding issues. We need to demand better for our national parks. One of our favorite places to stay. Sadly the population expansion is encroaching upon the park. Clear cutting and plopping housing tightly together.

The road speed bumps were unpainted and were quite a shock to the shocks. The Bathroom was inadequate with 1 stall in the mens room and the door didn't latch. The shower floor was covered in soap scum except where people stand. Other wise not a bad place to stay

Stray dog ruined our Christmas dinner. Dog kept coming by rummaging thru the trash, and pestering our guests for food. Since this dog was around and would not leave, we could not bring out our dog to enjoy the festivities with us. This pit-bull mix has apparently been roaming around for a week. Really put a kink in our holiday.

Had a wonderful time right on the lake. Our site was a little sloped front to back but nothing that we couldn't adjust. Will definitely go back.

Our third visit didn't disappoint. The lake makes for a beautiful picture and there's a lovely dock to enjoy sunsets. Park hosts Lee and Jesse were very friendly and helpful. Quiet, extra large RV sites are wonderful and well maintained.
