Great for families or small groups of people! Super close to the water, and very pretty campground
The campground is nice and quiet, there's no showers but there's water faucets. Lake was almost dry so there was no place to swim and no cellphone service at all, but the campground is very nice.
The sites and bathrooms are clean, and there are plenty of shade trees, but roadways are narrow.
