Great Campsite for all ages

Was a part of a large organized group of campers staying in The Heron preserve. The section is designated “primitive” but it does have full single person male & female restrooms, as well as electricity and water. It has plenty of picnic tables, a path to the lake, and woods to explore via trails. There are some pretty interesting pieces of history leftover behind the camping field.

During the day, there is noise pollution due to jet skis on the water, and the gun range located across the path. However, at night (when it really matters) it is completely silent except for local wildlife. It’s a lovely place to wake up to in the morning.

Note: The perimeter of the area is lined with a sturdy fence that can technically be closed via gate. We always felt safe, and would definitely return. Great place for kids to repeat visit and build memories.
