ScoutClean and quiet
Sites were well spaced. Bathrooms had hot showers and were clean. Boat ramp and swim beach on site. Very nice lake. Only noise was from planes above from a regional airport with close proximity.
GuideDecent site size, but pretty noisy
Sites are decent size and somewhat spaced out. Planes can be a distraction if you’re not used to the sounds, but the biggest distraction is the noise from other campers. Super popular spot for young families which is cool, but there’s little to no quiet time.
TravelerGreat overnight stay
Quick overnight stay; pad was large & easy to back into with our Cricket trailer- sites are nicely spaced apart (privacy). Airplanes fly overhead pretty regularly; seemed to stop in the late evening & start up early. Be prepared to pack you trash out of the park. Overall a nice spot!
