Quiet, even when the camping area is full it doesn’t feel like it Park attendant and his wife are always very friendly and helpful The campground very rarely has trash and if it does it’s not there for long

I liked this park. It was very peaceful and the lake was incredible. If you have a bigger rig make sure you are confident in your ability to maneuver into your site. It may take a bit of wiggling. Sat beside the lake on giant rocks and watched the stars.

Great campground vibrate. It was surprisingly empty right after the Fourth of July. The sites were clean and the host was very nice guy… Gulf war veteran too!

This is a beautiful spot out of the way and mostly peaceful. Perfect for swimming and families. However, the bathrooms are very primitive without running water/shower facilities.
