Felt unsafe
Went camping here on a whim. We had finished our camping trip up north and we wanted to extend our trip another night.
We were surprised to find this campground was almost completely empty when we arrived. It was the day before the Labor Day weekend started, and it seemed like the calm before a storm.
While we were setting up the wind was blowing like crazy off the lake, and the ground was rock hard. Make sure you bring upgraded tent stakes or you’re going to have a bad day.
All of this was ok, where it turned for the worse was the odd cast of characters around us. When we arrived to our camp there was two random people chilling on our picnic table. When we were setting up for dinner a random car showed up at the empty campsite next to us and decided to make tea without any lights what so ever, bear in mind it’s pitch black and there’s no one around us. After making whatever they were making they drove off, felt very strange. Let’s just say I kept my machete tool a bit closer this night.
Now the wind had died down so we were expecting to get a nice rest, but our rv camper neighbor decided to run their generator until it ran out of gas. This of course was in violation of curfew. This wouldn’t have been a problem if the park was patrolled, but no one ever drove by to check on anything. It really did feel like we were on our own.
I think if the park was controlled a bit better we might have had a better time. But the parking being what it was, with two random sets of people who weren’t camping by us, and an rv running a generator in violation of camp standards without recourse I can’t recommend this place for camping.
