We love going to this campground and the host is great. My only complaint is that they charge more or sites on the lake side but site 5 is the only one with boat access. If im being charged extra for a site on the water I would like to atleast have access to it where we can park the boat in the water.

Both rooms and sites were very well taken care of. We were there in June and the bathrooms were not cared for at all. It was really nice in July it was almost like a regular bathroom it was so clean, smelled good also!

Everything was great except I have a problem with the generator policy. The hours are to long 6 in the morning till 10 at night is to much in my opinion. My neighbor started his at 7 in the morning every morning and it would wake me up they would also run it till after 10 at night. I go camping to relax and enjoy peace and quiet. I think the policy should be the same as the state is 10am to 5pm. If you need electricity that much then go camp where they have electrical hook ups.

I had reserved this site about 7 months in advance; the reservation system was easy to use and we received follow up emails regarding at appropriate times prior to the camp date. The camp was easy to find, good directions and the individual sites well marked. When we arrived we found the campsite was extremely clean. Aside from some noisy kids into the late evening, the whole place got real quiet at 10 PM. Overall it was an excellent spot that we would visit again and stay longer!
