A good option on a day when everywhere else was full

We ended up here as Stillwater (and everywhere else) was full. Despite it being for groups, the Forestry staff were sending people here as over flow option.

Campground has basic level sites (gravel) and 2 large communal shelters with 10 picnic tables in each.

No showers .

2 water spigots.

Easy access to the lake via paths & gravel beaches.

As described, there is no natural shade as replanted trees are only 3ft tall.
