The camp sites are beautiful, heavily wooded and the roads are well maintained. The water and beach were disappointing ting. The photos must be old. The fishing peer is rickety, the water is green and slimy, the beach is full of weeds.

We had a great site! We have been there in the past where the sites are narrow at the entrance of the site - hence all the bent culverts. You should widen these with longer culverts so they aren't getting bent.
Showers are nice and clean.

The lake was beautiful and great for swimming! The double campsites are large with a good amount of privacy in between sites. The bathrooms were clean and the showers had hot water. It's $1 for 5 minutes and the token machine takes 1s, 5s, 10s, and maybe even 20s, but I don't remember for sure. There's a bar/grille/gas station that sells wood and ice a 10ish minute drive down the road. The wood was $10/bundle when we went, but they were huge bundles and 2 of them lasted us 4 days (fires every night and morning). The camp host was very kind and helped us jump our car!
