The Campground sites are either non-electric, 30 amp or 50 amp. Water is hookups are available in various locations throughout the campground. Campers close to the hookup tend to connect their trailer to the water line. The campsite we stay at does not have a water hookup nearby.

Three options for restrooms. Use the trailer, Pit Toilets, or Bathhouse. Pit Toilets are located throughout the park. Only 1 Bathhouse in the park that is not lcoated near any of the campsites. The bathhouse is on the older and cleaning in the mornings. The shower stalls are push button for flow. Expect to push the button often to get hot water and then throughout the shower to continue getting water. Only the handicap shower has shower hooks.

The grass is mowed regularly and kept in good repair. This week the grass around our site has been mowed twice… (Monday and again Thursday).

The park requires 1 night + $10 reservation fee to hold the spot. The full payment due upon arrival. The fee to reserve is nonrefundable if cancelled. They do allow a 1-time transfer.

Most of the sites will need you to level side to side and front to back.

The dump station is not located in the campground area. You have to drive to the swimming area for dumping. The road to the swimming area has 2 speed bumps that aren’t fun with a trailer.
