Beautiful campground

Lovely park on cross lake. Sites are large although not alway easy for bigger rigs to get into due to trees. But trees are part of the beauty. Camp amenities in good shape. A bit strict on leasing your dogs (even when they are in you campsite and behaving!) Coffee shop and gas station across street. Firewood on site for$6 a bundle

Large campground on the lake

This was a large campground with lots of sites, they have a mix of electric and non electric sites. We stayed in 106 with electric, this was a large site the backed up to the road but it was fairly woods so the road didn’t bother us. This has 2 boat ramps and a fishing pier. You can beach your boat but the spots can fill up pretty fast
