Site 98 is an easy site to back in. it is pretty long but slopes down towards the front, and slopes from right to left (facing the front). had to raise the driver side of the camper by a couple of inches. There is a decent amount of space on the site and other sites are not close to each other, giving you a decent amount of privacy. Cellular internet is slow on T-mobile and Verizon

Sites and shower house were clean and well maintained. Park was very peaceful and quiet. Sheriff and Rangers made regular patrols. Trails, fishing, archery range at the campground and a shooting range on the back sire of the dam give plenty of activities to keep you busy. You will hear gunshots from the range. Spotty coverage of cell/data via AT&T and Verizon. We will be back.

Great park, great site. Our one “complaint” is the nearness of the firing range. Chances are that from early morning until well into the evening, you’ll hear distinct shooting from the range. If your pet is reactive, this might not be the site for you.

Love the full hook up availability. Restroom/shower house was very clean. Enjoyed the hiking trails and biking in the campground.
