Great location to spend time outdoors, with family, and near the water. The restrooms are amazingly immaculate, such a bonus. It is obvious this location has pride and it is a gem. There are walking/biking trails all around. Such a calm and beautiful atmosphere. This was my first time being in an RV/5th Wheel. Highly recommend having this location as a destination. Friendliness all around and as a bonus, multiple places to golf that are not too far from this site. The weather just happened to cooperate and was perfect!

Beautiful campground and recreation area. Mostly electric sites with some full hook up available. Clean bathhouses, nearby beach, boat launch, dump station and potable water, dog friendly! Very beautiful in the fall!

With 3 boat ramps and a lot of space for parking trucks and trailers. Nice restrooms next to the boat ramps. I haven't seen the rest of the park. As you can see, plenty of space.

We have always loved the camping here, but this summer has been a disappointment. Over the years we have spent many hours by the beach, but this year it’s not even an option. The beach area is littered with goose droppings, it’s impossible to avoid. The weeds have essentially taken over the entire beach area. We are aware no swimming is advised, but my kids couldn’t even play in the sand without touching goose poop.
