Salthouse is close by, and we've been coming here for years. We were checking out our new (old) mini 1986 toyota winnebago camper, and stayed down in the front section. Bathhouse is AMAZING! Super hostess greeted us at the gatehouse, friendly and helpful.

A great place to take the whole family. Plenty of sites for varying equipment. Clean bath houses. Trails around the lake and plenty for the little one to keep occupied. We will definitely be coming back!!
