Known for its scenic beauty and family-friendly atmosphere, it provides an ideal setting for nature enthusiasts and campers seeking a mix of outdoor fun and relaxation.
Key Features & Considerations

- Family-Friendly Environment: Amenities include a water park and playground that are particularly appealing to families. The campground is described as very calm and a nice getaway for families.
- Facilities: Newly renovated comfort stations and a well-stocked camp store with essential items and friendly staff provide convenience to campers.
- Booking Policies: It is important to be aware of the booking restrictions, like the 3-day minimum stay requirement for cabins, which can limit options for a spontaneous short stay.

- Campground Maintenance: Reports of frequent patrols might impact personal privacy but may also contribute to overall safety and maintenance of the site.
