Nice campground. 2nd time we've camp there. This year, during a heat advisory and I was really hoping to get to cool off at the lake, but it was closed until further noticed. I think it's been like that for the past 2 years now. The showers are coin-operated. They have 1 building for showers and flushed toilets and 2 vaulted toilets. The looped area is close by the shower building. Nice place to fish. Caught some bluegills and crappie. Had a boat landing area, nice playground are for kids. It does get some shade during the evening.

I camped here twice and both times I had great experiences. Most sites are wide open with plenty of room. The guy working at the front office helped me back in my camper which was really nice. I plan on coming here every summer. Also, cell service is either weak or nil in this part of of Clark County. Come prepared.

Nice, clean campground with a beautiful view of the lake. My kids loved the playground and all of the space they had to run around and ride bikes!
