Nice campground with spacious grassy sites that may require additional hose and power cord to reach connections. We really enjoy group camping here a couple times a year. The restroom by the office could use some updates.

Nice campground. We were able to check in a little early to go fishing. Spacious site but we had to pull in forward to reach the connections but there was room to do so. Restroom by the office could use some work because of puddles of water on the floor and old showers. Didn’t check out the other bathroom so it might be much nicer.

Our experience was goid. Our kot must have had a camper on it for a long period. The grass had been killed from their mat and camper, so the lot was muddy.

Great place to camp. Beautiful, clean, reasonable rates, pet friendly with spacious lot size. For me a really great part of the experience is the woodland trail that my twin cocker spaniels love. We've been several times and they can lead me right to it.

Very nice campground with large campsites. However, the dump station was not set up very well. They have it locked and each person must get a key before dumping. This adds time with everyone locking and unlocking a pad lock each time, and it is not convenient to have to stop in the office before and after dumping. During busy times this is a bit ridiculous. It should either be unlocked, or have an employee there to ensure only campers are dumping and others are paying to dump. The day I left there was a very long line to dump. I’ve never waited to dump that long and I camp at campgrounds with hundreds of sites. A bad end to a great camping trip.

It was an alright time we spent four days there even though it rained on one of the days not very good that they have to lock up the dumping station and they had tournaments Outback so you couldn't go out there so there wasn't much to do

The staff were very helpful getting the pavilion extra table and taking care of the trash. Very friendly and a lot bigger than we thought it would be. The fire place would have been nice to use if it hadn’t been to hot. We would rent this again.

I was disappointed in the appearance of the park. A lot of it needed mowing and trimming. The electrical boxes are a mess and need to be cleaned.
