Great lake access but parking lot for RV's.

Set up as more of a large parking lot. The good features of this "campground" include being right on Big Lake for close access to the water. Lots of water activities on the lake itself. Close tight spots and literally a parking lot for RVs with no room for pop outs or tables. Tables and fire pits are at the end of your spot so hope you like your neighbors. Several walk-in campsites for tents which were much prettier.

Big Lake is so fun during all seasons (aside from breakup). We meet friends here frequently to ride jet skis, kayak, jet boat, swim, snowmachine, ski and most importantly enjoy each others company.

Always be safe on the water. Such a big lake draws in a lot of people. If you don’t feel like cooking dinner at camp, travel across the water to the Islander Bar and Grill or the floating coffee house.

Even if you don’t have a need for speed, you can enjoy many other water sports and there’s always room for everyone!
