Nice quiet campground.

This is very new campground. Opened in July of 2024. It is close to two lakes. Lake Whitewood and Lake Thompson. Very good fishing at both lakes. You are within 10 minute drive from fishing, swimming and boating on 2 fun lakes. I will be staying here for the summer of 2025 and looking forward to it. The owners are very friendly.
