Decent camp ground with good hiking

Just like any other organized camp ground part of your experience is who is near you. The site itself is exactly what you want/expect but this state forest has a 12-13 mile loop with a nice lake area about 3/4 of the way through that is really nice. Have been here on many occasions. Like anywhere in this area the mosquitoes are bad in the summer for plan for that but if you are looking for a straightforward camping experience with a nice trail network this is your place.

Quiet nice campground

Campground is very nice with a younger guy who runs it. There was a temporary issue with the well pump but he called us ahead of time to let us know and made sure we had an enjoyable stay while we were there with tips for where to find good hiking and a bit of firewood. Some of the campsites are a bit strange in their layout due to the stream that runs around the grounds and the way the land is but it worked really well for what we were going for. A good chunk of the RV spots are seasonal where the RV is kept there year round. You can see some of the work the new ownership is doing and I'm sure it'll be looking even better with time. Would recommend with the only caveat that if you have a large tent (3+ people) call ahead to make sure you will have the space on the site you are looking at for the text to comfortably fit.
