TravelerCabin stay
The cabins are nice, but small and no plumbing. If you're used to tent camping then the cabins are one step above that. Bonus is the air conditioning. Great view in Cabins 1 and 2. Gentle slope to a nice beach as well for those two cabins.
Tent sites are on the water as well but are right on top of each other. I could almost touch two of the tent pads at the same time.
ScoutNice and quiet
Nice shady quiet park great for just relaxing or getting out on the lake. Helpful and friendly staff at the office.
GuideChecks all the boxes
After hours check in was very easy. Just paid about $20 for a site with a level pad to park on, water, and 20 amp electricity at the site. Bathrooms are dated but decent. Showers are hot. Access off the freeway is very easy if you’re traveling through this area. Sites are close together but it is heavily wooded to have some privacy, and there was no problem with noise when we were there.
