Nice campground with large sites. Just did a walk through as it is closed for the season. We did notice a fair amount of road noise, but maybe it was just the time of day.

Great place to get out and stretch. Beautiful little park.

The water was absolutely disgusting. It had so much poop and the bottom was black and brown from it. My cuts stung as soon as I stepped foot in. The swim area was so small and had like 2 tables. Would not recommend.

Beautiful campgrounds. Staying in site 15 mid-June 2025. Sites are well maintained and most are private. 2-4 bars on Verizon. No wifi. Bathrooms old but very clean and showers warm to hot. Met the host and two Rangers. All were super friendly and helpful. Little pub named "Logan" something with great Friday fish fry, Sunday breakfast and fast, courteous service is less than a mile away. Would DEF stay here again!

This looks like a very nice park, from what we could see. We got there too late in the day (lost our sunlight) to really explore it. Plenty of picnic tables and grills, shelters including at least one that was an enclosed building, swimming, fishing, kayaking, bathrooms, lots of parking, a playground area, and a nice small bridge (good for pictures). Several Pokestops and gyms in the park and surrounding area for Go players, but we had a pretty weak signal there. They don't allow dogs (which seems odd), so keep that in mind when planning to visit. The water was very still, and made for some really nice reflective autumn shots.
