Customer Reviews
Quiet, spacious campsites. Camp host is nice and helpful. Bathrooms are super clean Sure beats staying in an in town "parking lot" type of campground. Cell service is very good, too!
We stayed here for 4 nights. Two of the nights we were in site 6 with our 42ft 5th wheel and truck. The site was plenty long enough for the truck and trailer. The only issue is it’s a 30 amp site. We then moved to site 16 for the last two nights and it was also plenty long enough with 50 amp. A few of the first sites like 1-4 have full hookups the rest either are partial or none. The showers were pretty clean but the water is hot hot hot! They even have a caution sign on the door warning about it. There is a play ground for the kids and walking trails through the park. The water is super far away and not quick or easy to get to. It’s about a 10 to 15 minute walk. Be sure to take a spender web stick or you’ll be covered in webs and some decent sized spiders. The dump station is still clos
This was a very nice campground. We came in after dark, so wasn't sure what to expect. The sites were narrow, but we made it in easily. Each spot had a covered picnic table which was nice. The sites were spread out nicely. The only problem I had was that it was surrounded by oil wells. Some were burning. The smell outside wasn't pleasant, but couldn't smell it in our camper.
Was really looking forward to getting in the lake, but we were traveling in an RV and no real lake access via foot. The dump station was under renovation, which would have been helpful to know ahead of time. The bathrooms were clean, park was quiet, beautiful sunrises and sunsets....a good place for a zero day on our RV trip.
Nice lake with easy water acess for kayaks...dissapointed due high boat and jet skiers passing close at high speeds causing big wakes, had to use my safety flag at one. Good bass fishing.
