Bugs bugs bugs

I don’t have many nice things to say about this campground. The bugs were out of control. The bathroom was out of order and a porta potty was set up beside it. The site we chose,#3, was the best site. We found some good trees to set up our hammocks with a view of the forest. 1 and 2 were ok, 4-9 were downright terrible. Basically a parking spot with a picnic area. All the sites were close together. The check in process consisted of a guy in an unmarked vehicle driving up and striking up a conversation without identifying himself. Check out works the same. If you have a boat or tv this park may be nice but I wouldn’t camp here. The hike around nearby lake Alma was the highlight of our trip.

Great place to camp

They have all the amenities you'll need. Gorgeous sites, bathrooms houses, laundry room, showers, lot's of things to do. Only issue is some of their longterm tenants were paranoid since we came in late at night. They watched us & flashed their lights at us all night, drinking and being loud and obnoxious, screaming n screaming loudly. They even had the audacity to play police sirens on their phones to mess with us s if we were doing something illegal. I wanted to stay longer but couldn't after that night. Beautiful park though.

Pretty but Crowded

Overall this is a good place to camp or to park your RV at. The camp sites were a bit close together. Each slot has an RV electric hookup, fire pit, and picnic table. There are spots right next to the lake itself which look lovely at sunset. The bathrooms lacked soap and were a bit grimey (but it’s a lake so that’s relative).

Beautiful place

Fish this place often and also camp. They keep this place clean and have never had issues with other campers. Stays quiet. Only issue is, they do not have a cleaning station.
