Lori Nosal:

"Great campground. Full hookups at site 186, with an extra parking space right, on the lake. We were at the end of the road so no neighbors on one side. Quite a steep site to get into but level at the top. We will stay again. Super nice host too."

"What a great park! Wide camping spots, clean, the lake is beautiful, and the 20 miles of bike trails are some of the best we’ve been on"

"This is probably one of the best spots we have been to. There was so much room, and the deer came out because it was so quiet. Just walk across the yard to fish. This was site 150 and I so recommend."

"We had a week here, and it wasn’t long enough! Beautiful campground, friendly staff, large quiet spots, fire pits, picnic tables, and each section of the campground has their own playground. A bit of a walk to the beach, but it wasn’t too bad, and definitely worth it. Word of warning: The foot/bike path does NOT loop. You will walk and walk and walk some more before you just end up walking away. So, at some point, just turn around. You can be done."

"Great campground that is well maintained with park hosts who are friendly, visible and efficient. Sites are large and level with picnic tables, fire rings, lantern posts and parking spaces. There are various types of amenities available from full hook ups to power only and tent camping so be sure to check if the particular site fits your needs. There is a wonderful bike/walking trail, nearby beach area. And visitors center all available to visiting guests. We will definitely return when in the area !!!!"
