Camp sites were close together and they didn’t have enough signs telling us where to go but overall great campsite and staff was friendly!!

What a beautiful hidden retreat! This was our first time visiting. We were looking for a spot not too far from home and that had some places to ride our bikes to, as in a restaurant or two and some sites to see. This campground fit the bill perfectly! The campsites are large and clean, mostly shaded in the trees (great for hot weather) The staff was friendly and most helpful! They even gave us free tokens for the showers (which got nice and hot after a minute or two!) The water was glassy everyday and our labs enjoyed the swim area. We didn’t bring our boat this time around but certainly will next time. We will be back. :)
