Family friendly oasis

We had so much fun here! The spots are roomy and grassy. There are several bathrooms on the property that were maintained daily over the weekend. There is potable water and garbage cans at nearly every other site. Dog friendly. There is a day use area with a gravel hike through the hills a canoe launch, fishing areas, tons of covered gazebos with bbqs at each, and a swing set. There is also a massive gazebo you can rent out with several bbqs, a sink, electrical outlets. We had so much fun and will definitely be back!
