The park is located off Route 220, 8 miles west of Oxford.
What a fun place with a lot to offer for being such a beautiful, secluded place. We spent the memorial weekend there and everyone had a great time. They had crafts for the kids, activities and games, swimming, a movie night, and a live band all in one weekend! Large campsites with good space in between. Cozy little cabins to rent as well. Will go again, would highly recommend going to escape the everyday life stresses. Great place to relax and recharge.
Great park for camping and outdoor activities. I would highly recommend to get a campground with a lot grass otherwise you'll have tough time securing your tent to the ground. Beside this hiccup the entire place is great, as they offer descent showers bathrooms in many different places and a really nice lake that you can go for a swim or do some kayaking.
If you enjoy actual camping, where you have a little bit of space, and a little privacy, this campground is excellent. No water or electrical hookups. This place is a little off the beaten path, but was worth the trip, and we'll definitely be back. The staff were friendly, and you could tell that they try hard to take care of the place and keep it well cared for. There are many many good sites here. It would have to be a jam packed 4th of July weekend with no reservation for you not to be able to find at least one that worked for you. Very few of them are "on top" of each other, except for a few that are purposely that way for group/family camping. A very decent place to fish/boat with kids. Nice beach with concessions, and a playground.
Beautiful views and a lake is there if you want to cool off on a hot day. I really like hiking around the lake. The camping area was great, it was spacious and has a great fire pit. I was expecting the campsites to be more secluded and farther apart, but I could see other compsites and others could see us. Otherwise it was an awesome weekend.
We parked in the beach parking lot and took the trail around the lake, which is about 1.25 miles. Parts are along the lake and parts are in the forest next to the lake. The trails are well marked, flat and relatively easy, but you do need to cover rocky ground. We went the day after rain, and there were some very muddy sections. Overall, a nice walk with a very pleasant view.
