Overall this is a nice campground for primitive camping. The majority of the sites are spaced out and private but unfortunately I couldn't find any pictures online of the sites so the one we got was not private. We stayed at site #4 and it is best suited for a group of friends because your neighbors are 10-15 yards away with no trees or anything in between. The biggest issue with site #4 is there is no picnic table. Luckily we were only staying one night so not a big deal but there was no mention of it on the booking website (Reserve America).
Aside from that, it is well kept and the bath house was pretty immaculate for such a full weekend. Several playgrounds nearby if you have kids to occupy.
The main overall issue is the lack of staffing. I'm not sure if it's the usual or if there is a lack of staff in general but we got in shortly after 7PM and there was no ranger or staff to be found to get firewood. No honor system or anything so we had to venture out to find some after we got our tent up because the main office was closed as well. As a heads up, the Dollar General does not sell wood nor does the new Lakecity Mart gas station. We found a large white house/business of some sort that had an honor system and it was $10 for a massive bundle of wood. Oh and when we left on Sunday, as of about noon, there still wasn't any staff anywhere in the park that we saw. Not sure what was up with that.
Some of the hiking trails were well marked and up kept but some others were not so if you aren't good with navigation, choose wisely. Biggest issue we had was with the Gazebo Loop Trail/Pioneer Trail. Several spots were overgrown and not marked so you had to guess a little bit until you ran back into a well worn trail.
Didn't do any lake activities but the water looked nice and there was a lot of activity on it. Nice boat ramps as well.
Overall a nice stay but choose your site wisely. I took several pictures of each site to help others in the future. I didn't get site 7 or 10 because they were occupied but they are pretty nice as well but 10 is slightly open and not as secluded.
Nice little park but not a lot to do. The lake is clean, but small. Easy to kayak the whole thing out and back in a couple hours. There were a lot of people fishing so I'm going to assume it's well stocked although I didn't have a pole with me to try it out. Hiking trails are well maintained and marked but don't have any overlooks or really any other destinations (at least the trails that I hiked), just old forest and bird watching. The pool was open and was well kept. The campground spots aren't marked so we didn't pick the best one. We stayed at 41 and the picture online was a little misleading as it's directly next to site 39 but it looked bigger than what you actually get. For reference for others, the even numbered spots are on the outside of the road (aside from maybe a couple) and are much more private in most cases. WiFi is only available at the northern bathroom but I still couldn't connect, the access point may have been maxed out as the campground was full. Sprint and AT&T did not have cell service. Overall, it's a nice little spot and a good place to get away since there isn't cell service but it is a little small and doesn't offer a ton of recreation opportunities.
