Reviews

Visitors highlight the importance of choosing a shady site during hotter months, as some sites lack water hookup which can affect comfort.

Great camping park! Showers/bathroom was clean and tidy every day we were there (8 days). Park was mowed once during that time. The park shelter was clean and tidy as well!

Nice place near the lake. Water at each site would be good! Get a shady spot in July or August 🥵
