Seems to be an older state park . Our camp spot was nice . There is no place really to fish unless you have a boat . Small beach area about a mile up the road . Didn’t see any hiking trails . Nice place, just not much to do there .

A wonderful “gem” of a campground!!! Camp host,John is great! He takes good care of the area and always ready to chat and share a fishing story. Beautiful area for tent camping.

We recently discovered riding trails here and have gone twice now! We have not camped here before but I’m sure will by next summer. There’s about 6 miles of trails and they are well marked

What a great place to have your first camping experience! The bathrooms are cleaner than any other public bathrooms I have seen, and it is so peaceful down by the water! 10/10

We were alone the entire trip. Bath house was closed but, vault toilet was open and CLEAN. Two different water sources were available. Sites not cleared of snow, luckily for us not much snow to deal with at our site. Sites normal size back ins. Lots of wild life (deer, coyotes). Nice older trees surrounding the campground with new growths planted in the center of grounds. Children’s play area center of grounds as well. 50,30 amp hook-ups with 2 110 plug ins as well. Cell phone signal down to a stumpy one bar, but we did get our phone calls and held connection. Solitude was worth priceless.
