This sounded like a great spot at a great price for tent campers. It was a nice location, but things were less than ideal.

The good: View of lake is scenic! Nice shaded campground with some planted native plants that will be a bonus as they establish. The fire rings, picnic tables, and site equipment were nice. The shower water was hot. There is a boardwalk next to the lake, but it's very short, so it's not what I had envisioned. Easy access to a boat ramp and a couple of short piers. I saw a piebald squirrel on the road to the campground!

The not so good: The bathroom isn't cleaned well, and not daily. There was bug debris on the walls, floors, and counter ( which did seem typical for other public restrooms in the area, but this is where I'm brushing my teeth each day). There was no mirror at all. I had to use the visor mirror in my car. The shower had plenty of hot water, but there were no shelves or hooks to hold anything in the shower. There was one hook to hold your clothes or bag on the door, but no seat to set things on or get changed inside the shower stall. There was a bench outside the stalls, but it was next to the entry door, with no sightline barrier. The handicap shower used a lawn chair as a seat, but the faucets were ADA. The campground host seemed mostly unavailable. When we knocked to check in, he didn't answer, and then 10 minutes later, we saw he was outside and caught up with him. I didn't expect an outlet at the site, but I thought I'd find one in the bathroom or on a wall. Other than what the host is plugged into, there are no outlets anywhere. You must be fully self-sufficient with any electric needs you may have. The lakeside bench I tried to use had poison ivy all around it.

I'm not upset that I used this campground, but I'm glad it was only for a couple of days, and I'll try a different one next time.
