No cell service until you’re 8-10 minutes out from the site. Got showers and toilet plus electric. I’ll be back

Had a tent site on the water and it was great. Beautiful and wooded and semi private. Some sites are a little wonky and have two tiers while others would be a challenge to put more than a large tent on.
Shower houses were mostly clean but poorly ventilated. TMobile Cell service was non existent…not a complaint but be aware. Also there is some limited firewood available on site but no camp store so ice or any other supplies are about 20 minutes away.

Overall a beautiful place but choose your site carefully, preplan your supplies, and bring a map 😉

Love Horseshoe Point! I have been camping there since I was a little girl and I recommend it over all the other places in the area. The only thing that I wish was better is that there were more electric sites. 15 out of 49 sites just aren’t enough. I would love to be able to take my camper to a lakefront site with electric. My husband has to have a CPAP machine so we have to have electricity when we camp.
