Ironwood loop offers the best views of the lake. Overall campsites are spacious and well separated. Free hot shower in cold weather, lake beach on hot days... what more could one ask for
I never see so many campsites in one state park. Restroom and bathhouse are 8 out of 10. They keep it clean and nice. Hot water is also good for anytime. My favorite is the lake side trail. So beautiful and very relaxing and easily done. Between Each campsite have a panty the space.wishing that’s some Electric site near the lake.
We tried Hickory loop for 2 nights in October. The campground was nice. The site itself was good, but I noticed that there are nicer and larger sites. Very difficult to tell from the website. The facilities are good; the bathroom was clean and the showers were clean with hot water. The lake is a few minute away on feet. All in all, it is a good place for camping. The part that we didn’t like was related to light and sound noise from some of the other campers, with generators being used after 10 am.
Amazing place for camping! They have an artificial lake as well for fishing. The place was beautiful and well maintained. We went there during rain and still had a great time. Management could have been better. We were told we could arrive till 10pm, but no one was at the campground registration office and the gate was closed. Repeated calls went in vain, since we were not able to find the code easily to open the door. It turns out we were sent that as an SMS. The camp host, located in the Ash loop, was very helpful! They guided us towards our campsite in the dark, and even lent us their lighter which we had forgotten at home
Just doing some tent camping, Awesome place to camp, bathrooms clean and nice. Plenty of room at the sites, would love to see it in the summer!
