Noisy with a great view

We stayed two nights at T02. The good: you get a great view from the east side of Carter Lake. Access to the lake for kayaking and fishing could not be any more convenient. There’s plenty of privacy on the water right down the hill from these campsites. It’s close to the marina store, so if you need anything, you won’t have to travel far. There’s one bathroom at the campground which is nice too. The not so good: This is not a quiet and peaceful campsite. We stayed during the week too and still dealt with traffic noise and rowdy neighbors. Campers here don’t have respect for quiet hours at all either. The campsites are very close together and there are no trees in between to give you any sense of privacy. There’s also a school bus that came and turned around in the campground every single morning and afternoon, in addition to droves of motorcycles driving by all day long.

TLDR: Beautiful view and lake access, not quiet at all.
