Stayed in the cedar view area. Nice large sites with easy big rig access. The other area had an access road that was in need of repairs when I stayed last year. Both areas have nice views of the lake

Stayed four nights with friends. Quiet campground during the week and the bathrooms were clean. Sites have fire ring, picnic table along with water and electric. They have a pickle ball court, corn hole boards and a playground for kids. This park is dog friendly

Absolutely gorgeous, this park is very big, has a variety of things to do. Fishing, camping, and hiking, bird watching, kayaking and much more. People were very welcoming. Will definitely be back.

It's a great park with boat ramps and docks, fishing pier, several easy walking trails, lovely picnic areas, a small nature museum at the visitors center, gift shop with snacks & indoor lake viewing area. A couple of spacious camp grounds & kayak rentals. I only wish they would remove the wood and vegetation debris from around the boat ramps and accessible shoreline more frequently. The fishing pier is currently being renovated.

We were just passing through, so we only stayed 2 nights, but it was a nice park with a nice campground. The lake is great for boating, but it was too windy for us to kayak.
