The group campsites are beautiful and well maintained. There are however a few things to keep in mind: 1. You have to drive to the showers as there is no walking path that will get you there… On arrival at the showers you will have to wait as there are 3 for the entire campgoround… Ridiculous 2. The toilet that is within walking distance is a moderately clean pit toilet… Probably serviced before and after camping season… It’s pretty disgusting — you may just want to bring a bucket or freshette 3. The lake is beautiful and refreshing and algae full… Bring an extra suit and shower immediately after swimming or boating

Wife and I stayed here for three days. Honestly, the worst mosquito infestation ever. Five cans of 100% deet repellent. Lost count of how many bites.

A group of friends and I went camping here the first weekend in June. The 1.25 mile hike to the campsite wasn’t bad except for the fact that there were mosquitos everywhere biting at us the entire hike in. It didn’t help that the hike in was surrounded by swampy water which mosquitos tend to breed in. We reserved two campsites along the lake(18&19), which were fairly nice but kind of small. Being next to the lake was really nice and kept our campsites cool, for the most part. The only downside to it is that you hear carp splashing in the water all night which was kind of annoying. There were a lot of trees giving shade and privacy from other campers/campsites which was a plus, but that left barely any room to do/put things after tents were up. In addition, there was nothing really to do once we got to our campsite. We fished and some went swimming but other than that there really wasn’t much we could do unless we wanted to hike the 1.25 mile back to the car and endure the torture of the mosquitos biting at us endlessly. We initially reserved 4 days, 3 nights here but we ended up leaving after the first night because everyone was bitten up and a couple were finding ticks on them left and right. Overall, I don’t think I would ever go back. I’m not a big camper but this was one of my worst experiences. I suggest that if you love the outdoors and are okay with a lot of mosquitos and ticks, this place is for you. If you don’t like them/can’t handle the large amount of them I would suggest going elsewhere.

This was our first visit to this park and I have to say that I am a fan. The employees working at the office where you check in for camping were knowledgeable and friendly. The tent sites at the park are some of the best I have seen in the State Park System. You can’t drive to most spots, but they have carts you can use from the parking lot to your site. I would recommend spot #25 if going to camp. Many of the spots are tight on the water, so be careful with small children. The only downside, and it is not their fault is loud music coming from across the water at a club/resort. Will visit again!
