If you need a spot this will do

This is just a rock parking area with electric hook up spaced out, next to lake,so no designated spots. Because it is popular for fishing you may have people walking through your campsite and in front of you site fishing on the lake. It is does have large trees so you may be able to park with shade.

Nice and quiet

Small park with no extras...no running water, no playground equipment, no electricity. The grounds were kept up nicely and there is an outhouse for use. The mosquitos were terrible. There’s two small ponds for fishing, I wouldn’t recommend swimming in them. The loup river is a short distance away and it is BEAUTIFUL.
