I appreciate the trees between the campsites and the large campsites. I wish the second water pump was fixed (just needs a handle). Overall it was a very nice experience.

The campground was very nice and quiet. A beautiful, spacious, wooded campsite right on the lake. We launched our kayak from there. There were some big loons on the lake. The swimming beach was great also. We really enjoyed our 3 days there. No phone service at all. The campground was easy to find. We were looking for the dumpsters and didn't see them until we pulled into the boat launch area, so maybe a little sign would have been nice. And I didn't have a map of the campground, so a map posted on the board would have been great too. A wonderful, relaxing camping experience!

The campground was gorgeous, and the lake was great for a quick swim. True to the other reviews, the whole toilet was one of the cleanest I have ever used. However, the horseflies were pretty intense, so be aware of this if you are planning a midsummer trip. I can't count that against the campground, though; the flies live there, and I got to enjoy the great outdoors.
