Customer Reviews
Boondocking location for tents and campers. This is a free no amenities location. They do have a porta-potty and fire rings. This is a grass location that is kept mowed and picked up. 3 other tent campers were there when we were there and we were able to stay a good distance away from them. Fishing is available. No boat docks. I'm not sure I would swim in this lake(???). Dump station located 2 miles away in the village of Carthage. Also in the village is a shower and laundry mat building open 24/7. This is a quite serene location. No limit on your stay.
