Nice quiet campground with view of the lake. Boat launch shallow beautiful lake!
Beautiful natural quiet peaceful campground. Truly environmentalist friendly. The landscape is best described as un-tampered with landscape. Enjoy!
This was a great place for some rustic camping. Campgrounds were in good shape. Bathrooms (vault bathrooms fyi) which I don't mind as long as they are maintained well. Which these ones were in excellent condition the whole time. DNR camp by every day restocking and cleaning. There a boat launch. And you can on some sites along the lake tie up instead of pulling your boat out every night. We had a great time for the most part. As always in most places bring bug spray and keep your food locked up at night and while your away. Bugs weren't that bad though. Always had a little breeze to keep them down it seemed like.
This campground has been visited by my family for three generations. My grandpa took my dad there, and my dad took our family there. I have been camping here many, many times, and it is my idea of the perfect campground. It is rustic camping -- water is via a hand pump, there are zero hookups of any kind, and the toilets are all vault toilets with no showers. However, the sites are well maintained, large, and private, and half of them have direct lake access if you have a boat. I will forever and always come back to this campsite because of the memories growing up here and the quality of the (limited) facilities. Cell reception is spotty at the best, but it's rustic camping... put your phone away! Read your book by the fire and go swimming in the lake.
