Great stay, but then we had the entire campground to ourselves. Loved the swimming beach. We camped in a 45' Class A. Website limits length to 40' but after talking to staff, we learned we would be able to fit many of the campsites. Concrete pads are 40' but asphalt driveways are much longer, although many driveways have some slope. Beautiful area with many trees. Even though we had solid tree cover, our Starlink worked just fine. We camped in site B12.

Clean quiet, beautiful view. That's what I go to COE parks for.

This is a beautiful park that is on a beautiful lake. The showers are in desperate need of refurbishing. The litter at the campsites is almost overwhelming in some parts.

We love going to Sanders Cove, the gate attendants are so nice, friendly, and helpful.
The Dairy Queen is the best around.

The sites are great with easy access. Nice lake for all activities. Great MTB trails although they could use a little clean up and to be ridden more. The bath rooms were clean but needed some refurbishment. The host was very friendly. We had a great time.

This our favorite Campground to explore Pat Mayse Lake.
The Rangers and all the Park staff are great to interact with and are humble with their enforcements, if needed.
You can tell the people who care for the Park are invested and committed to keep it safe and clean for everyone.
