Went for overnight camping and some swimming with my pup. The trash wasn't an issue as I read it has been. Didn't run into any crazy animals. It did storm a couple times but it didn't ruin the experience. The access to the lake is great! I was glad to swim with my pup in such a hot day. I think my main complaint is that it's so close to the highway you get car noise all night. I'm a light sleeper, the sound of nature would have been much better. Also there was a boardwalk to the creek but it was totally broke. Other than that, it's free, first come first serve. The other campers were really nice families and for a holiday it wasn't packed which is always a bonus. When I arrived I had plenty of tent spots to choose from.
