Nick and Christina (hosts) were exceptional. They both clearly enjoyed their jobs and checked in often. The campground was clean including the bathrooms. Definitely will be returning.

this park was great! The spots weren't too close to each other, we had wooded area with a nice shade cover.

The bathrooms had flushing toilets and running water but we had to bring soap and make a make shift garbage for the ladies.
The hosts Nick and Christina were really amazing! They checked in and made sure things were clean and when we went to them with bathroom issues they were on it! It feels like a large coverage are for just a couple of people so more resources for the staff would help. The park was extremely busy!

Check in was smooth and informative. Site was clean and quiet. Camp hosts Nick and Cristina were busy with the full campground but checked in on our group several times over the weekend.

We had our own seating and tables but the camp tables need attention

The campground was the perfect size for our group. Enough room to be spaciously spread out. The utilities were clean. Good walking distance to the lake. Loved it!

We arrived on opening day for Memorial Day weekend.
John greeted us warmly at the gate as we arrived. And our camp host Michelle was fantastic!
The campground was clean & well prepared for the season and the water level was high.
What a great weekend.

Our campsite offered us privacy. However, the shared water tap area had lots of food waste, garbage and mud making it very unsanitary. The vault toilet next to our campsite needs to have screens installed in the wall and pipe vents as there were so many flies inside. Please have someone in charge enforce the no-burn advisory as our neighbors had a campfire all night long making us nervous.
