Great place to camp. You bring your own rooms.
Walter Williams
Great location with a beautiful lake. Really enjoyed the night here. You can hear the road but for us the convenience was worth it for us. Turn on the fan and you won’t hear a thing.

They checked us in on a site they knew didn't have power. After I called her about the issue her excuse was that I made the reservation online. That is a fact, but you need to close it from your end, so nobody can make a reservation on disabled site. Duh.

Great service. Great view. Clean bathhouse. Clean pool. Very nice in general. We highly recommend.

When we reserved this site, 6 months before our arrival, the website was down so we called to make a reservation. The woman asked if we wanted a pull through site for no additional cost. Of course we said yes. With the website being down we were booking sight unseen. When we pulled in we saw many lake front sites available. That would have been a prettier site. We were impressed with the clubhouse, pool table, ping pong table, air hockey etc all for free. The pool and hot tub looked really inviting especially all lit up at night. It was 80 degrees out, in October. However the gate into the pool area was locked. Oh well.
