An unusual campground with a few separated loops. One lakeside and 2 across the road. We camped across the road. Arrived on a Thursday afternoon. Only 2 others camping here. The sites are very large and level. The restrooms are positioned in the center, so close for everyone. Very roomy bathrooms. The showers were unisex from separate outside entrances. The too were large, but needs a place to set things down. Despite the curtain, the entire floor gets wet. It was a cold evening, so the walls also got wet from condensation. This made drying off and dressing a bit difficult. The camp filled up for Friday and Saturday but we were totally alone on Sunday night. So peaceful.

Everytime we've camped there it's been a great time. The nightly fee is reasonable along with the facilities.

This campground is beautiful. The sites are large and laid out well. Nice bath and shower houses. There is fishing and a great playground. If you like stargazing, this is an amazing location for that. The host is very friendly and helpful. I will definitely camp here again.

Personally, I don’t think it is as bad as other visitors have stated. For a campground, they have actual toilets, not port a potty’s. The sites are a little tight, but nothing to really complain about.

I've been coming here since I was very young. I don't remember how beautiful it is. Very well maintained and staff is great. It rained 4 of the 5 days and acorns were falling and I was set up next to a metal shed and the loud pops from them hitting roof were very entertaining. Some of the firepits need to be moved in my opinion because they are either behind camper or to far away and I do all my cooking outside. Got my eye set on a few sites for next year already.
