Nice location

Enjoyed my stay here. Site was close to water so pup could swim a few times during the day. Staff was very helpful. When I made reservation a couple of months ago, there were only a few sites to choose from. On arrival, campground was maybe 25% full. Free shower was a nice treat. All sites are electric.
