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.

Easy access to park and camping area. Lake was easily accessible as well and inviting. Road in and around campsites needs better marked directions. The roads are tight and if you have never been there could easily get in sticky situation, especially if your rig is big or long.

We had a great time biking the Berber Hills Trails. We camped in the B lot and some of the sites are concrete and level. Ours was not, but it wasn’t to bad. Next time I will make sure to get a concrete slab.

This is a lovely campground. We had a beautiful spot and the view was wonderful. The only drawback we found was the showers it hadn't been cleaned in some time and there was no where in the shower to set your toiletries. A shelf would be great.
