Just an OK campground, nothing special. The lake was closed so nothing to do.

Due to a large algae bloom the lake was closed to all. That probably helped insure the extreme peace and quiet.
Camp host mentioned the campground would see extensive improvements in the future.
Beautiful location. Will return someday.

The site was easy to locate and navigate, even pulling in at night. The lake was closed at the time (which we knew ahead of time) but the view was still very nice. We stayed at #11 which was slated as having electrical hookups but pedestals were only near #10 and #12 and were already in use by our neighbors. We typically boondock so it wasn’t a big deal, but would have been nice to have had electricity. Overall pleasant stay.
