Park is very well maintained. Pam and George do an amazing job keeping things up and are both very friendly! Most of the sites are very spacious and well shaded too!

I love it. Long-term parking is available for a very reasonable rate. There is a pier for fishing, which is wheelchair accessible, and there is seating available at the end. There are probably 20 or more fish attractors, so catching fish is good to very good most days. Just be sure to keep your rod anchored. There are a couple of play areas with swings for the kiddos. There is also a boat ramp with plenty of parking. Also there are a bathhouse and a laundry area. The husband/wife managers are people of excellence who will do anything to help those who need it. Most of the campsites are full hookups with 30 AMP electric. They are also quite spacious for those who like elbow room.
