Beautiful CG... no fees right now... water, vault toilets and great fishing.

Storms were crazy but we survived.

Quiet... 3 bars of Verizon.

Boat ramp.

Trash bins.

Like a campground from the 80s that doesn't get much love. Its pretty quite, sites are in ok shape. No fire rings which I don't get, just some awkward grills on the ground. Toilets were closed due to the covid. But it's FREE. Would go back.

Nice “State Park-style” campground…campsite’s immediately adjacent to each other. No fire rings or grills, just picnic table and lantern pole, but also no fees right now. Saw one site with running H20, toilet and trash bins are on site. Few sites right on the water (first to be taken) and free boat ramp adjacent to camp. Caught couple fish to eat from camp…bonus! Mixed hardwood/piney woods are pretty. Crows scavenged everything left on the picnic table while we slept…tortillas, buns, catfish bait, bag of peanuts, and powder creamer! Most bass fisherman launching boats are tools, but nothing new, lol. This lake is friggin Huge!! Snag 1 or 2 adjacent sites for privacy, 😜
