Very nice campground and swimming area as well as boat ramp.
The only improvement I saw was the handrails going to the sites we worn and really loose.

Great place to camp. All sites are a short walk from the beach. Bathrooms were cleaned EVERY day. Lower shower house didn’t have hot water in the ladies but the upper shower house isn’t far away.

We always love our stay at Horseshoe point. The attendants are always so helpful and friendly, and the sites are well maintained. We enjoy taking the camper and boat to experience all that Horseshoe has to offer. The kids love to take their bikes and ride around the park as well. Even now as teens this is one of their favorite things to do throughout the day. One of our favorites!

We had a beautiful site it was a bit unlevel but I was able to move more toward the picnic table to a more level spot. Bathrooms were clean and staff was very friendly and helpful especially Sandra.

Horseshoe point is one of my favorite places to camp. The campsites along the lakeshore are terrific for kayakers/paddleboarders with plenty of nearby coves to explore.
