Excellent campground with large sites and beautiful lake. The host couple are very nice. They keep the place clean and quiet. Couldn't ask for more.
Camp host ruined this beautiful campground. The bathrooms are filthy the host lies, I believe she views this as her place as she said she spent her childhood here. It's not right,I do not recommend camping here or anywhere else s'mores memories manages as they are aware of the problematic host, and support her.
Very nice little lake and camp ground. Most of the sites have trails leading to the lake, for easy access to lake oriented activities. You know the ones. Please do not leave your garbage laying around, or the mirror people will come out of the lake at night, and they will find you. There were some nice frogs and toads.
Went there last year & I’m so glad i did!! My camp site had access to the lake, a beautiful view of it too may i add! Very it quiet & serine. I had enough room for my tent, kayak & trees for my hammock! Out house was clean & had a water station i few moments away. Good price on staying there, gracious hostess of the park.
