Great Playground, close to tent sites. Nice staff and great coffee and beautiful setting!

Nice for kids!

Clean area, typical KOA restrooms. Not much shade. Pretty mount and lake views. Playground and store. $5 for showers if you are not staying.

Clean

Super easy to book a spot here through the KOA website. Found the store stocked with some pretty good food that rotates weekly. Clean and well maintained bathrooms and campsite

Easy and clean!

Cleanest and nicest bathrooms I’ve seen in a long time!! We stayed in tent spaces which they were working to update with water and electricity, both of which worked for us! A storm came through and it was windy for a bit, but besides that beautiful skies and great weather. Respectful campers, and right by water access!
