Some spots are really close but no closer than at home. We were lucky enough to have great neighbors. The campground is beautiful and as always kept very clean. The handicapped spots are close to the restroom and had enough room to easily get around. Great mini vacation! We will be back there!

Nicely spaced apart sites. Level, shade from tall pines, quiet and not too far off the main road.

Site 19 has not been cared for in a while. Weeds right up to the fire pit all the way around. Plants overgrown around the picnic table and trees down had been fallen across the trail and not cleaned up. The other sites looked nice and cared for. Had I been tent camping I would have left and asked for my money back.

Nice campground with water access! Only a few sites booked the days we were there, so it was very quiet and relaxing!

We loved all of the trees and shade that they provided. Both the campsite and bathrooms were super clean. The walk to the water is short and easy. The only risk is that the attendance of the sites is not regularly supervised. We had a regular campsite next to us that ended up having almost 20 people who were incredibly loud. They took over a portion of our campsite and stayed up super late past quiet hours. The ranger did come through a few times a day but never really stopped to check-in with the guests occupying each campsite.
