Horseshoe Point

Badly eroded shoreline made getting down to the lake difficult and dangerous. Also had the most frightening camping experience of my life after park manager told a highly agitated man with a day pass that there was a single woman camping alone in the park. The man came to my campsite and would not leave because he thought I might be someone he met on the internet who was playing games with him. Then tried to hook up with me regardless, ignoring my making it clear I was not at all interested. The clueless (or vindictive?) park manager said I could have resolved the situation by driving away (leaving the angry stranger alone In my campsite with all my belongings!). Also said I should never have spoken to the man despite having directed him to me! Then said he would make a note that I wanted no visitors, as if an unhinged stranger desperate to hook up with a woman could possibly be described as a visitor. I think he and his wife believed I had it coming for camping alone. Felt like going back in time fifty years. A real wake up call about backward attitudes in that part of the region. Will stay clear of it in the future.

What a lovely campground! We are tent campers and this adventure was with Grandmamá, Papa, and two of the younger grandkids (8 and 10). We camped at site #3, one of the beautiful lake-view sites with power and water. Even though the sites are a little close together in this area, and somewhat small, this one stretched out into the woods a bit and offered a beautiful view and birdsong every morning. The sites are well-maintained, and the bathhouses are kept very clean. We experienced very hard rainfall on two days, but the site was flat and well-drained and we stayed dry and comfortable. We were surprised how chilly the nights were, dropping into the 60's in July, a welcome change from the sweltering heat of the summer. This campground offers an "honor system" firewood supply, which we always appreciate and it was kept full throughout our visit. The dump station offered a bit of a challenge to make the turn to get into it, but we were happy to have this available. We have no complaints at all, but wish that some of the lower lake-side sites were equipped with power and water, too. There are some excellent sites, although it might be tricky getting a larger RV into the sites and navigating the narrow roads.

Horseshoe point will on my list of favorite campgrounds. Bathrooms clean, lots are a little small for a 25 ft camper, love to go back!

It was a little annoying not having anyone manning the booth when we checked in. Only later to have a park attendant bother us at the campsite to issue our tags. I didn't appreciate being interrupted for that. But the grounds were clean, and the facitities well maintained, and everything worked. I did appreciate all that. I would love to come back again.
