We stayed in the RV section, and all the sites had a paved pad, the tables were pretty level, and they were really clean. It was a little disappointing that the little store/cafe wasn’t open. The lake is really low, and we only saw one guy catch a fish although the lake is stocked. Nothing the campground can control. We still had a nice weekend.
