Great for a family camp weekend. There is a shower house with running hot water. Full hookup on most camp sites. Make reservations in advance the staff is helpful.
Justin Repp
Not friendly at all, pool thing is gross, no firewood most of the summer, Store has very little to offer. Lots of wild cats, so that's fun. Left mid season without refund with no regrets.
Jeff Rea
