We had the worst campground check-in experience here than we’ve had in 4 years of camping. We got here early and there was still a tent with a bunch of men coming and going plugged into our site as well as the one next to us. So we waited until the 4pm check in time to try and get someone to help us address that. There was no one at the “camper registration” office despite the hours posted saying it should be open. Park Ranger numbers that are posted all go straight to voicemail. Called the campground number and a woman told us to go to the park office for check-in instead. Got to the park office and it’s also closed and locked. Called back and after trying several times to get someone to pick up, an older woman who answered said there shouldn't be anyone at our spot and that we could either drive around and try to find a park ranger (since we can’t get any of them to answer their phone) or move to another site. No way are we moving, we picked the spot we PAID for for a reason. My husband had to ask them himself to move to the site next to us and stop using our site. I’m extremely disappointed that we paid to camp here and we can’t get anyone to help and can’t even enjoy our trip. ETA 2/19/25: The B campground bath house is going to be closed down apparently because of a tree leaning towards it but there hasn’t been hot water in there the past 2 days anyway 🤷‍♀️ The lady working at the gift shop area said if we want to move to a camping area that has a working bath house/warm water she is going to charge us for it on top of what we already paid for our current spot. I feel like the very least you could do would be to waive the fees considering how poor this entire trip has been. Our only other option to let our young kids take a shower is to walk or drive them to another bath house. We paid for our spot ahead of time, yet there’s several other people (in area B alone) that have not paid to camp here at all but that’s apparently fine with the staff here. Disappointed but not surprised. Ridiculous.

Great place to tent camp. Facilities clean and well maintained. Great views of the lake. Plenty to do (kayak, hike, mountain bike, fish, explain to your wife why you can't feed the raccoons no matter how adorable they look)The raccoons are gangster!!! They look offended when you try to chase them off.

Walked/drove through for future tent camping potential. 3.8 stars. Great overall State Park amenities for boating, biking, hiking. Beautiful area. Nice, clean restroom facilities with free showers. Good steel fire/BBQ and moveable picnic table at each site. Most tent sites are not very level and are gravel which is good for parking but tough for tenting unless you're using thick foam or blow up mattress. A mix of moderate size sites and some fairly small sites. Nice shade in most tent sites. Sites 13 to about 17 have nice water views. Water access is down a hill but I wouldn't consider any as "water front." Very little distance between sites.

We had a great time Memorial Day Weekend despite the weather. Park is beautiful. We are already planning our next trip. I would definitely recommend getting a spot by the water for the best views!
