Surprisingly, this campground was really loud. There are a ton of trees and you have to pack in all of your gear from the parking lot, so this was a bit odd. We could clearly hear all conversations around us. Including a large group that was having some sort of acoustic band performance. This is an area where a lot of people come in to paddleboard because of the pretty lake. But when a drunken fight broke out in the parking lot with a woman screaming angrily at her significant other for over an hour, we were just a bit done. It was also pretty difficult to get gear to the campsites, so I recommend only going if you have a small amount - it’s not really car camping. All in all, a pretty spot, but I would just recommend bringing backpacking gear and ear plugs.
