ScoutThis place is amazing. Very clean. People are very courteous
ScoutMy dad and I visited in may and had a great time. Lots of bathrooms that were all clean. The grounds were very green and shaded, each site had a flat mulch spot for the tent, a firepit, and a picnic table. Very close to lots of different trails. Only problem is that there are a lot of sites and you’re pretty close to your neighbor (like your tent is 10 feet away and usually no brush between).
ScoutClean, mowed grass, gravel roads, basic campground without frills. It’s quiet, well off the highway, good camp store, friendly helpful staff. We will come here again when out this way.
GuideSites are big and level. Power hook ups if you need them and plenty of shade. The 3.5 mile trail around the lake is a good little walk for the dogs. Highly recommend this campground.
TravelerWe stayed here recently for our first time and really enjoyed it. The water park is great for kids and it has a restaurant and an ice cream shop. It’s spacious and the people who work there are so friendly. We will be back again.
TravelerSolid location for a night or a whole weekend. There are several porta potties available and the sites are spacious. This camp is perfect for the fam as it can accommodate RV sized vehicles. Only word of caution is that the ground can get a bit muddy, so try to find something dry.
ScoutThis was my first time taking out a travel trailer and this was a beautiful place to take my family. The owners were very kind people with very reasonable rules. Very laid back environment. Beautiful scenery
