GuideNice campground with wooded area. Had a full hook up and pull through site since we were only here for one night. Facilities and showers very clean as is the entire place. Camp office and store are lovely and staff are exceptional. Easy to reserve by calling at last minute. Site was a bit tight on the side of a hill for trailer and truck but we did ok.
GuideBeautiful camp area. The tent camp loop was closed so I stayed in the full hook up area. Did not need electricity or water but the great washroom had flush toilets and showers. Very clean. Camp host was wonderful. It says it’s just off I40 but the camping area was more like 7 or 8 miles in. Perfect for no road noise. The lake is wonderful. Great walking around the area.
GuideGPS was wrong and we had to loop back to exit 137. Then it dies at the stop sign so take a left up to the big sign and make a right. Then you are at the right spot. Verizon phone signal is 1-2 bars max. Does have a place to ride bikes, grill, picnic tables and coded bathrooms. Small compared to some of the others but it’s quiet and off the highway which is what we wanted
TravelerCute little spot hidden about 5 min off of i40. Just need to call ahead and they’ll ask what time you plan on arriving. Seems to be a husband and wife that uses their land as a little campground. Mostly gravel, lots of trees for shade. Does seem to be one or two long term campers but very quiet and quaint. Water and power hook ups. I didn’t hook up as I just camp in my van(:
GuideCampground was great, site 8 was alright, but will probably try a different site next time.
TravelerBeautiful park and site 1 has plenty of room for a small party. Site 1 is at the end of what is basically a peninsula of trees that you get all to yourself to explore. There is a boat dock across the water to the right of the camp that can get pretty crowded with people fishing from 8am to sundown. There's also a portajohn right by the camp so no need to treck through the darkness!
TravelerI love this site and have already returned multiple times this year. The water is not safe to swim in, but it is beautiful to wake up to. The only issue we had was the camp being next to a couple boat docks, so you might wake up to some boaters sitting right outside your campsite. If that really bothers you, though, there are other sites that face the woods that you can book instead. There are bathrooms and fire rings near each site.
ScoutWe tent camp, but like electricity, however the pads are concrete and can not get stakes in ground. Did not know it was okay to put tent up off pad in grass until we called a park ranger. By this time we was frustrated because we had already put tent up.
GuideOur site is already pretty level and that the hookups all work well. The staff is very nice in the office and would come back in the future
