Sanders cove is the most awesome clean and quiet spot. We camp here at least 2 times a year and sometimes 3. Love it

The breaker box at this campsite is not strong enough. Our breaker kept flipping. We had to use a box fan to keep the breaker cool.

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.

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.
