The camp/lake was fine, but our campground was disgusting. Trash everywhere. Upon arriving, there were several dirty diapers thrown around our site, probably from the last family.. Not to mention broken glass under our table even though glass bottles are prohibited. Seems like no one maintains these campsites even though they are always booked and always have a host on site??

Not too bad a spot at 164. Kinda sucked tho cause we were told to put out our fire (were next to the host) and he didn't go around and tell everyone else. My kids are mad we had no fire while everyone else did. I understand it's not a burn day, but this is ridiculous. Now they want to go home and don't even want to stay the weekend. I think next time we'll pick a spot that's closer to the water and maybe we can find one that doesn't have the fire pit in a corner so it's not as hard to gather around. (On a burn day)

Absolutely love this place. Went for mother's day week and had a blast with the kids. The showers and bathrooms were surprisingly clean and always filled with toilet paper. The camp site was very clean and we had a great time. Lots of wildlife. Recommend keeping food in tubs or in the car at night. We had donkeys that decided to play with one of our boxes they found by the picnic table and kept us up kicking it around and tearing it up. Was funny to watch though. They came up while I was sitting down later and just stood there while we talked. Insect repellent or citronella is definitely a high recommendation. Have places for extensions cords if you need to charge a phone or bring a fan. Love this place!
