New Site

We stayed at the newly built “blue site”. We enjoyed that it was secluded from the other campers and not crowded! There was a view of the lower lake. However the lower lake doesn’t have a big stock of fish (not for our experience). With this being newly built the asphalt seemed to give a little and even just sitting in our chairs made indentation. There is a small fire pit (we didn’t use this). With it being a new site there was some red mudd the got scattered after a short rain shower (mostly from our littles). We visited the “beach” one day and the water was super warm. There’s a cute little waterfall down a walking trail behind lot 27 in the red sites. There are two bath houses available for campers only. They are not cleaned to my standards (but I’m OCD). There are state inmates during the day that ride around and pick up your trash from your sites. It did not appear to have a guard with them! Overall it was an okay short trip and cheap if you have kids to go to the beach and little park they have! The blue sites did not have much shade so it was pretty hot being July! The red sites are more shaded and seemed cooler!!
