A little piece of heaven

We've been coming here for quite a few years. Has new owners that bought it 2-3 yrs ago. They are absolutely wonderful! Nice game room for the kids on a rainy day. They also have a small playground. Fish cleaning facility. Nice restrooms and showers. They'll bring you a load of wood if needed for a very reasonable price. Overnight sites on the lake or actually a bay. Has a boat launch within the campground and slips to park your boat by your site. The campground sits on Nelson Lake. Fantastic fishing!!
