The hosts were very helpful and attentive. We had the lake to ourselves the first day we arrived. The showers were clean and accessible. Overall, a small and perfect camp to enjoy.

I just wanted to relax, but the camp host kept pestering me.

Very nice site. Clean bathroom and showers. Good hosts. Nice water area and trails. No cell service, we came on a rainy weekend and would have been nice to have been able to keep track of the rains.

Site was fine but there was a lot of noise at night. One of the hosts was very gracious, but the other could’ve been nicer.

Great little campground. Camp hosts were phenomenal and the kids loved the lake. The creek was also a hit. Highly recommend and will definitely be back.

Great well managed campground. We were lucky enough to be there when the creek in the middle of the campground was flowing. Such a peaceful sound. We will definitely be back.

Great quiet campground. The hosts were wonderful. Thanks, Bill and Jo Ann. Campground was clean. Only thing I would change was the gate closed at 10 Pm and the fireworks didn't start until 9:30 on the 4th of July. I would not close the gates until later on that day.
