Horrible. I camp all the time. Unruly, boisterous late night trash talking guests, the host was a joke. Lived in wabeno, was never there. Saw him 2 times in 3 days. Dogs non stop barking.

Camp host was friendly, offered great advice when asked. I was able to easily switch my reservation to a different site within the campground closer to my family. Much appreciated. Very nice campground and lake. Beach area could use some work. Bathrooms were clean. Just wish those nasty beach flies hadn't been so intense.
