Hidden gem. Bike trails and campground are spectacular. Campsites are well spaced and beautiful. Many have easy lake access. We love coming back to this site.

We went and checked out the campground. It has power and water on sites. Most of the sites are pull through. Decent sites. We like the campground. Plan on staying here for a few weekends.
