"One morning, as I was sitting drinking my coffee, four deer walked right through our site!! We had a regular nighttime visit from some bold raccoons, so definitely put your goodies and trash away."

GuideBeautiful lake and campground. Mostly level camping spots. Breezy during the day and calm at night. Can only stay for 7 days, not 14. Has lots of trees as well for hammocks.
ScoutWe had a great stay. This site was conveniently located to all the great amenities. There are so many fun things to do at this resort! We will definitely be back!
ScoutOur lot #46, had a brand-new picnic table and fire pit. Easy access. There is much to do, and live entertainment and events. We visited beautiful Bob Sandlin State Park and explored Mt. Pleasant, which had much to offer. Never a boring moment yet peaceful and relaxing.
ScoutWe hitchhiked here and got turned away for not having a vehicle to register with the campground. The grounds looked nice, but be advised that if you are traveling on foot you will not be permitted to enter.
ScoutGreat place for a family coreball vacation. More contact with nature. Enjoy when everyone chats and has relaxing moments. Beautiful scenery and really fresh air.
TravelerWe've seen advertisements for this resort and have already booked our first stay for 2025! The new management company and reservation team have made the booking process incredibly easy. The staff is very kind, and the amenities look amazing! We're also excited to see a vessel home for the first time!
RangerThis place was not busy when we came out. The view of the lake was beautiful. Lots of deer in the campsite.
TravelerFriendly staff clean site, showers that are nicer than home. Each site has a shade tree but other than that, not much shade.
ScoutSite and road to it are both well-maintained. Absolutely gorgeous views of the water. We got the best sleep we’ve ever had camping with the soft grass and our sleeping pad. Watch out for mud spots in the grass.
