    Nice place

  • A.P.

    June 2026

    Stayed in the waterfront cabin. Note the cabin door does not lock. Very close to the bathroom/showers which was nice. Cabin does get very hot so while we had fairly nice weather, could be unpleasant at 80+ degrees in July/August. Felt a little expensive for the accommodations.

    It was a nice campground, but no activities or socializing going on.
