Big beautiful open spot. Vault toilets were clean - rangers stopped by often to check/clean. Quiet, close to the lake, absolutely no complaints! Second time camping here; love it. Bring your mosquito stuff—

Great spot for large groups however, the bathrooms are not kept clean at all and to not replaced. We cleaned our own...a little disappointing considering the fee.

The group site has plenty of room for several RV / Trailers. The outhouse is nice and clean. The area and the lake are beautiful. We had a great time at the lake playing on the nearby beach.
