We camped here for 3 nights in one of the electric site in mid July. We prescouted which site we wanted before reserving it online. At this time of the year, mosquitoes and horse flies are in full bloom. We brought plenty of spray repellent. Unless you were sprayed head to toe, they will find a spot to draculate your blood. The wooded trails would've been very nice to walk or hike through but we would've came out like we just lost a fighting match so we passed on the opportunity. Next time we will bring mosquitoe head nets. The area is very wooded and natural, very beautiful place. Lots of wildlife, we saw a few types of butterflies, many kinds of songs birds, chipmunks, red squirrels, loons, owls, hawks, a very large female garter snake, toads and lots of leopard and pickerel frogs at the swimming pond. Surprisingly I didn't see any salamanders, though I wasn't intentionally looking for them but was hoping to see one or two wandering around in the early mornings or late evenings of the moist forest floor. Very nice to see milkweeds along the roads and path too. There are definitely scavengers roaming at night. Our first time camping in the north so it's our fault, we were unprepared for them the first night and left food out in the netted tent. Had racoons and bears came through and raided some of our food. After that night, all food was locked away in the truck. The racoons did come back the 2nd night but left quickly after not finding anything to eat. The bear didn't come by our site but can definitely hear it trying to go through the dumpster because we were close and can see the dumpsters. The shower building was very well kepted up. I think they cleaned it 2-3x a day. Shower water were nice a warm but the water however seems to be very hard just by tasting it and is slightly stained. Visually it is undesirable but safe of course. We were lucky the week we stayed was cooler, temps never really made it past 79 degrees and nights were cool in the upper 50's and low 60's. Made for a very comfortable night.
