Many campers appreciated the quiet, secluded location with well-maintained facilities and clean restrooms. A common theme was the peaceful atmosphere and tidy grounds, though note limited cell service except at the dam top.

Great, secluded campground with nice parking and covered picnic spots. The bathhouse is very clean and the whole campground is well kept.

Quiet

They have a great nature walking trail that is well mowed. Good for young kids. Go here to get away. There is no cell service unless. You drive up to the top of the dam. We camp behind the dam. It is quiet and has good patches of grass on most sites for tents. The showers and bathrooms are well maintained and always clean. I wanted to deduct a star for lack of swimming area at the lake but this isn’t really their fault; the drought has been rough. Bring baseball equip if you are staying a while, or frisbees. They have a frisbee golf course and lots of room for baseball or other sports.
