Beautiful family camping experience with gorgeous lake views, straight from our tent. Each camping spot has a picnic table, fire ring and grilling setup. There are plenty activities to do with family or friends: hiking, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, paddle boarding, biking, etc. Will definitely camp there again.
I love this place. I've been coming to these mountains for my whole life and this campground is really close to the turnpike exit. I've never had any problems here.
This is a beautiful park and campground. Camp sites are clean and well cared for. There is lots to see and do not only in the park, but within easy driving distance. There are limited full hook ups, many with electric only , and a number of great tenting sites. Reservations are important for holidays and events either in the park or nearby. Wood and ice are available on site as is dump station and potable water at entry. Check in and out at 3pm. There is a pet friendly loop and other areas are non pet, so make sure if you have a pet that you get a site in the pet loop. Check the park website for available activities etc.
We recently camped here and it was great!! Very nice place with large campsites. The bathrooms were clean, and well maintained. We will definitely return in the future.
