Great Family Lake

Just got back from a weekend getaway at Lakeside. We stayed in site 35, which was one of only 2 sites left for the weekend when we booked. I have to say by some miracle I think it was one of the best sites at the lake. While it's the last site down and the furthest from the lake, you can still see it from the site. It's also one of the largest and flattest sites they have. Luckily nobody had showed for site 36 so we were able to just pull our rig through without fighting to get in. If you have a larger group, I would suggest getting sites 35 & 36. Site 36 is ok, but not nearly as much space, so the two together is ideal. The lake itself was beautiful and quiet even with a full campground. The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is that there is no beachy area for swimming. It's pretty muddy/marshy at the waters edge which isnt unusual but isnt ideal either. Perfect lake for paddle boards and kayaks. Kids did some swimming but it's quite cold with the snow runoff this time of year. Also great area for bikes and atvs.
