RangerThe lake is beautiful!
This little area is so beautiful, the reservoir water was so clear! There are a few sites here that are all in a row, decent privacy. The sites are long, but it might be tough to turn around or get into the site if you have a really big rig. There is a sign stating that it’s a dead end with no turn around, but there is an fairly open area at the end that you can use, but there is no loop to drive around, so be cautious of the length of the vehicle. It was a very full campground with long stays reserved at the end of summer.
