Comments:
Very nice campground with
150 sites. All sites have water and electric. As this is about
twenty minutes from the
house, I think we will get a lot of use out of this campground!
Multiple loops
feature both wooded and waterfront campsites. Each site has a fire ring,
lantern post, pic nic table and paved drive. Along side the drive is a
level stone pad, which on most sites is large enough to set up a family sized
tent. Many sites have a drive long enough to park the pop up as well as the
tow vehicle and another car. There is plenty of understory bushes &
plantings between sites, so for the most part you are not right on top of your
neighbor - nor are you looking at each other.
Many bath houses
are set around the campground, but pick you loop well as there is not a bath
house in every loop. They were extremely clean and inviting.
For water enthusiasts
there is both a swimming beach as well as a boat ramp. Many sites had
both an RV as well as a boat on them. Some of the waterfront sites allow
you to tie up your boar right behind the campsite!
Handicapped Availability:
Handicapped sites
were set aside in all loops. These included a higher fire ring,
wheelchair accessible table and the stone pad was a smaller hard packed
stone. The bath houses has a small entry threshold to get past but feature
roll in showers with grab bars.
