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.

Campground hosts are super helpful people! If you need something, just ask. We loved our tent site with its own view of the lake. You might have to carry water a distance from the well--we did, but our spot was worth it! We were able to kayak right up to the site. The water level is down currently, so that might not always be the case. Horseshoe Point is a quiet area and the local law officials came through 2-3 times while we were there, which is great!

The campsite was clean, well maintained, very peaceful and quiet. If you want to get away, be in the woods and nature but not be too far from convenience, perfect place to go. We will definitely go back again.
