Awesome as always. Tent camped and pulled the rain fly off to sleep under the stars. Campsite right on the water. Dried fish on a Coleman stove. Swam multiple times each day. Running water. Toilet up the hill and showers just around the corner. Campsites were packed and everyone had a good time. What else do you want….

The campground was great, the location was great, the check-in was great, but the roads were less than great.

My home town lake. Camp attendants are always very nice and helpful.

Great place for family camping. Camp hosts are super friendly and when we broke down (repeatedly) they were understanding and accommodating.

The first spot I had reserved by the lake shore was so unlevel I could not level my 30 Rockwood Ultralight. The water line was full of reeds which was no big deal but the bank wasn't usable.
The people at the main entrance were awesome and helped me switch to another spot that was much better but not by the lake. It appears that most lake side sites are unlevel.
My fire pit was full of ashes. I shoveled it out before I made a fire.
Other than that I liked how large the site area was. There was plenty of room between sites.
The boat ramp is narrow but usable. It has a good slant so you don't have to back into the water. There is only room for one vehicle at a time. So there may be a wait.
The person at the main entrance was extremely friendly helpful in identifying local stores and such. There's a great fishing tackle store close to the campgrounds.
I used the bath house. It was okay but now well maintained. It only had hot water as far as I could tell. The shower head kept blowing off of the pipe. The drain seemed to be a bit slow too. It's usable but not something I would recommend.
I would recommend it as long as your expectations are not real high and you get a chance to look at the sites before you decide on the one to reserve.
