I hate to let the secret out of the bag, but this place is amazing. Quiet, peaceful, inexpensive and beautiful. Wish I had caught a fish.

We camped here four nights November 2024 $25/night water/elec. Half off over 62. Nice park well maintained but a small park, nothing to do except lake activities, no trails. Site 1 through 21 are along the lake shore, level with a lot of shade probably the most popular but they are pretty close together. They have a blinding flood light mounted at site 1 that floods all the sites along the lake shore and after dark you will need to be behind your camper or a tree to keep from stumbling around. Good T-Mobile signal with 5g.

This is such a great state park!! Beautiful grounds, big sites, super nice staff, the lake right at your fingertips. Teri, Brett & Elaine are all wonderful. Camphosts are friendly too. 😉 It's a little slice of paradise. Perfect spot for sunset every night on the docks. There's a grocery store, dollar general & a couple restaurants less than 10 minutes away. Propane exchanges but no refills nearby. Wish we could have stayed longer. Favorite LA state park yet!
