Needs a little end of summer maintenance but nothing major. There’s six dead trees in spot 6 that need taking down but they’ll get to it I’m sure. There isn’t running water other than the bathrooms. Everything else was great as always. Clean and quiet, almost no thru traffic. Lovely view, camping spots, playground, boat ramp and a bathroom with flush toilets all within 500 feet of one another.
