Nice campground good fishing no swimming area roughing it type
The campground was difficult to find, and once arrived, the mosquitos where overwhelming. I stayed only one night as the surrounding area was exceptionally damp and the lake was high leading to more mosquitos than I may have ever experienced in my life.
Nice campground. Wooded sites are well spaced for some privacy. Nice views of lake. Picnic tables and fire rings at each site. Clean well maintained pit toilets. Keep an eye on pets as this is a rugged area with lots of predators.
