Good overnight

Stopped over on our way from Texas to Missouri. Needed electricity since it was 98 outside with 60% humidity. This place is fairly small and looks like used mostly by locals. Lots of teens running around and swimming in the afternoon and evening but they cleared out around dark and it was really quiet. Electricity and water worked well. Ran the AC all night. It has bathrooms and showers but we didn't use them. Boat ramp so some early morning traffic. The road coming in is paved but rough in some areas. Concrete pads at most sites so pretty level. Driveways at some sites are washed out. Lots of sites to choose from on a Monday night. Good cell service with Verizon. Self pay station. We paid $15 with senior citizen discount.

Relaxing lake!

Peaceful and quiet lake. We stayed mid week and our sons had a blast kayaking. The only boat traffic were those fishing, and they didn't seem to mind our sons rowing. Park has lots of places for walking. We stayed in a primitive site near the water. Showers are horribly cold, but available. Campground also has flushing toilets and water.

Small and quite

It is a nice little campground that has R.V. camping and tent camping. We like camping here because the campsite is next to the shore. There are some nice camping spots under shade trees. When you want to cool off you can just walk from your campsite to the water and get in and cool off. However don't wear white when you go swimming because after you go swimming white cloths turn orange. It does have a swim beach but we like to swim privately at camp. The fishing is pretty good. There is a playground and restrooms with showers. They only have about 25 campsites that are 1st come 1st serve. Getting a campsite near holidays like the 4th of July is almost impossible unless you go days early to get a spot. The campsites have picnic tables, grills and a fire ring. They also have trails for riding horses. Camping with electric is $18.00 Senior citizens (55 and up) and disabled citizens is $15.00 Primitive camping is$8.00

There are two camping areas. The one on the east side of the lake is a bit more primitive but still has hook ups and a bathroom (seasonal) the main camp is open year round.
