Kid and family friendly

Our first trip to this area and we weren't disappointed. Wonderful country and scenery. Great campgrounds, spacious, bit aa bit tight to back into with soft shoulders to the road. Clean bathrooms and trash cans are plentiful. Walking trails to the lake and what a lake! We shall return at some point when it doesn't snow between 80 degree weeks.

Spring fishing trip

Great Campground, for tent campers there are vaulted toilets that are normally clean!  We have returned here year after year.  The upper sites you can get a faint ATT signal. 
The only downside is that during peak times( holidays etc) there were a bunch of sites with generators running all night and yappy dogs LOL! Other than that we love it here!


Not bad 

Perfect setup for the camper and so quiet, loved it
