We positively LOVED this campground overall, and our site (34) in particular. The campground was well laid out with lots of spacious pull-throughs. We were in an area of 2 sites that felt like boondocking sites: open field where you could park any which way. We backed up to the water, although you couldn't see it. But that meant we were a very short walk away from the beach and the sunsets! That beach was a "no dog" beach, but at the end of the road near the boat launch was a spot that they told us we could take Avery. She had a boulder to launch herself off of and the water was nice and clean. The walk was maybe 5 minutes. There was also a spot near the maintenance yard that the check-in person said could be used for dog swimming, but there was a "no dog" sign there (unlike the boat launch area) and the access wasn't as easy.

​

They also rented bikes for something ridiculously cheap like $10/day and canoes for $15/4 hrs. We took advantage of the canoes.

The campground had easy access throughout, super nice big free clean tiled showers (so nice I took a photo of them!). There were additional bathrooms scattered around that were drop toilets that were very large. There was laundry (but only one washer/dryer).

There were two little swimming beaches that were never crowded. The campground as a whole was very quiet. They offer seasonal camping, too.

The dump and water were the only downsides. The dump was a tight horseshoe shaped area and the potable water to fill your tank with was at the front gate in a weird spot and very inconvenient. You pretty much blocked the entry area to fill up.

VERIZON was only ok, but we were able to stream with AT&T. T-Mobile wasn't very good at all.
