If you’re looking to tube or ski, Better move it along. Also there are signs about not swimming due to toxic algae so that’s a bit eerie too.

Seems well managed. I visited to check out the bike trails. They need some attention. There were a lot of branches everywhere. Maybe I will volunteer 😉 some time.

It's a little Drive North of town. But the lake is beautiful and for $20 I can't think of a better place to park for the night the bathrooms are not really great but they're fine for showering and using. And the host is a super nice guy and available to help with any issues

LOVE THIS PLACE. The camp host is the best one we've ever had at ANY campground.

The camp host Randy is awesome. My family and I came out from California and spent a week there. Can't wait to go back again next year

Never been here before. Just saw it on the map and thought why not check it out. Pretty nice sized lake, very well maintained, with plenty of tent camping spots. Boat ramp and a fishing dock.

We stayed 4 nights...(Site 10 38ft 5 wheel) Water pressure was fantastic ...camp host was extremely accommodating. They do have a shower house on site which was extremely clean even thou I used my own shower I went to the bath house strictly to have an opinion in my review. They don't have full hookups however there is a dump station at the top of the hill. Over all great place ...fortunate someone let the best kept secret outta the bag otherwise I wouldn't have known about this little gem.
