Beautiful area
The camp site we had was close to the lake. We left a day early because of tornado warnings. Other than that we had a great time
Definitely worth checking out!
We saw some negative reviews, so weren’t sure what to expect, but thought it was great! We were in 25’ van in Site 87 Pelican Campground. Campground faces east and has a great view of the lake. The van created shade in the afternoon, but there’s no shade in the morning. Other camp sites had more trees, but then the view isn’t as good. Trade offs! Vault and flush toilets in each campground, but no soap dispensers to be found, so carry your hand sanitizer! Important detail - showers are coin operated (50 cents for a few minutes). We skipped the shower, but quarters could be important if you’re into cleanliness! Roads in/out are rock/sand, so a little rough in spots, but there were all kinds of campers who seemed to manage just fine - vans, pull trailers and big rigs. We like to relax by the lake, but didn’t check out the beach or any of the water sports, so can only say that it was a great place to stay for a couple of nights just to get away. Road gravel bikes from camp in the morning (OK riding, but not great - maybe better when there hasn’t been as much rain), relaxed and watched the water in the afternoon, and enjoyed the Dark Sky Community vibe at night. Perfect for what we needed!
Lakeside Spot 14
You can reserve spots online for camping, but you still need a day pass to enter. Ends up at roughly $45 but it's quiet, well maintained and easy to navigate. A great stayover or extended stay.
