I will definitely come back for kayaking fingers shaped lake! Limited hiking trails.

This is a gorgeous place to explore! I saw many birds and some turtles. It appears that there was a massive cicada event here based on the evidence I found. I explored a few trails, and one of them was paved, which was pretty cool. The views were nice, and there were restrooms near each trail head.

Very nice campground with a lot to do.It’s a very kid friendly louder but not crazy place. It is a busy, busy, busy campground. They tore the observatory down but the trail is nice it gets pretty close to the embrrasse river but your going to do a little bush wacking to get to it.

We are camping for 2 nights/3 days in camp site #31. It is a very nice site- surrounded by trees and it is a level site. We have walked many miles and we're pleasantly surprised to find the Cafe open. We have actually been there twice- once for ice cream and then for lunch- fish and chips- all good!! We really love this campground.
