A very nice state park. However "stimulus" money was spent planting trees that will be to close to the roads in loop "A" in years to come and will limit the access of "Big Rigs". The campground can be very busy on weekends, but during the week occupancy is sparse. There is a beach in the park but not close to the campground as is a boat rental. Shower houses are in better condition than during our last visit in the spring. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We camp here several times per year. Well maintained facilities; satellite friendly in main loop, back loops are tree covered. Rate is for Sunday through Thursday. Out of state residents pays $7 park admission fee on top of site rental. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very nice sized campsites. We stayed in section A site 33. Sites near water are less than level but have great shade. Grounds are well maintained. We had trouble with the water hook-up being to far from site and had to make a trip to local walmart for extra hose. Also, you share water hookup with neighbor site and water pressure can sometimes be a less. Playgrounds are not for very small children and the geese droppings will keep you away from them. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Some shaded sites, not very level near the lake. Other sites with no shade, all grass and gravel out along the enter/entrance loop road. Water connection was a major problem and the water faucet is shared between 2 campsites which can be spaced fairly far apart. Bring lots of hose with you and know which side your hook-up is on. It took 30 minutes changing sites just to find one to accomodate our RV hookup and lack of significant lengthy hoses. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Nice family campground and friendly staff. Severe weather struck during our visit and the staff went around door to door with relevant information to keep all campers informed. Our loop had sites immediately adjacent to the lake, which was great for fishing with the children. The beach was clean and quiet. The restrooms were generally clean; however, very dated with peeling paint. We plan to make an annual visit to this campground. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
It is off season, so there are very few RVs here (3 including us). It is well maintained with easy access to sites. The rate is reduced Sunday through Wednesday night. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Beautiful State Park with very large sites. Interior sites were actually bigger, and the back of the sites do not butt up against each other as indicated on the maps. They have a buffer green space area in between. We were actually closer to the people across the road than the people in back of us. Rangers held nature activities and campfires for the kids, and the numerous walking paths along with the rest of the park were very clean and nicely mowed. Beach was fun for the kids with a very reasonably priced concession stand. Would most certainly stay there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Excellent state park with very big campsites. We stayed with family and had plenty of room between campers to set up screened tent and enjoy company. Nice, brand new playground for kids, nice swimming beach, walking trails and very friendly staff. Excellent place to stay. Only complaint is that bathrooms had lots of peeling paint on walls. Not a big problem but kept me from giving the park a 10. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Beautiful state park with huge campsites. We went during the week and had our pick of waterfront sites. They said it's very busy on weekends. Baths basic, but clean and decent. Lake is all no wake, and fishing is big here. Only complaint is that pets are not always quiet, and some acted aggressive. Park rangers should address that problem. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
