This is a lovely COE campground that is high enough off the lake that camp sites will not flood, allowing it to stay open when some must close. The sites are large and most have plenty of shade.

Beautiful park! The bathrooms could use a little more cleaning but not too bad.
Greg
Beautiful campsites and marina. The beach was closed due to recent flooding.

We enjoyed our stay.Host was amazing.campground itself could use some upgrades.roads and sites could use paving and leveling.Would have been better if they could cut some of the underbrush so you could see water and a beautiful sunset.We would stay there again though.
