Camped here for the 2024 eclipse. Fabulous location with 4 minutes of totality. Nice campground on a pretty lake. Several sites on the lake. Big woods setting. Sites all have electric with some 50 amp. Good gravel sites. We reserved a site as early as possible just to get in. At the time of our stay it was $20 a night. Bathroom and shower facilities could use some updating. New dump station, Yea!! Several sites have been upgraded to full hookups and paved pads. Nice. Limited hiking trails through the woods. Wildflowers were in bloom. Trail markings were sketchy. Take a map. Trail conditions needed work in places. One downside... The loop that we were in seemed to be the ONLY turnaround at the end of the park road. Since there is no entrance fee, any vehicle that gets this far into the park "just to see the campground" ends up driving though twice coming and going. Grrrrrrr.... Other than that, nice stop on our way to Florida.
