I will start by saying, this is by far one of the quietest parks we've stayed in. The bath house was clean and AC working. Not to mention the hot water was a not an issue. Used to be a laundry room as well, but they have been removed due to not working. The play areas are updated and only needed more kids playing. The boat ramp is easy access although really could use a light at the docks. Overall the park is a little darker than some we've stayed in, but still felt safe the entire time. We enjoyed the darker stay. It was nice to not have lights shining into the camper as we we're trying to sleep.

Visiting here with a group of 3 motorcycle riders doing the South East Backcountry Discovery Route. The sites were clean. Bathroom/shower is climate controlled, clean, with hot water and good pressure. Would visit again and do recommend. Rebecca, the grounds keeper was kind as well.

The Hoste Anan (I'm not sure of the name) was very helpful and friendly answered our question and helped us move to a location close to the bathroom. The park was clean and we fell safe. We walked down the entrance road for over a 3 mile and the road was tree lined and was like walking into the past every one that past waved and obe stopped to ask we need a ride. We will be back and tell all of our frends.
