Customer Reviews
We had the park to ourselves on May 30 Wonderful spot 25.00 no electricity 35.00 Hookup to electric No water or dump.
Awesome tucked away campground. Only 15 spots first come first served. On a smaller but quieter lake than the main lakes. Good fishing. Oak hill marina is just across the bay. There's a boat ramp here and restrooms with showers. $25/night no power and $35 a night with. Some sites do have water hook ups. Lots of shade. One downer is there's no beach
Of wasn't for location, would have been just 1 star. Random fire pits, that. Have nothing to do with specific camper site, any of the bumper hitchees or 5th wheel use the adjoining pot for parking giving themselves 2 areas . Only electric hook ups unless you have 100 - 200 ft. Hose and lucky to get one of 4 spigot next to the 1 hydrant between 2 campsights. No dump station, so unit next to us, who was there for almost a week just ran there sewage ?? Maybe just lightly miixed with gray water ,under their camper mud hole by morning. Livable if priced like a state campground for 16, but was $35 a night with only electric
For being such a small campground it was very relaxing being right on the water ....was maybe a ten min drive if u wanted to go to barefoot bar or if you wanted to go to Arnold's park , very convenient for where it was ....showers are ok but I'm glad there was a shower to use esp with it being so hot ....we had a shady spot ...small but cozy and we paid 35 for an electrical spot and for being there for 3 nites 105 is alot better than what some of the hotels were asking for ....will most definitely go back
I use the showers after work with some frequency. Functional but not ideal. Is average to above average for a campground but its still a campground...
Loved the spot for riding the bikes!
