Booked this site from Recreation.gov, based on a recommendation from an acquaintance. Definitely should have done more research! First, park was poorly kept- it appears nature, not rangers nor groundskeepers, or anyone in particular, keeps up the grounds. Our pad was covered with brush and gumballs, only which I was able to see after some other camper moved their SUV & boat. Who parks in an RV pad they didn't pay for?!

Only downside is that tent campers are rumored to season your firewood with warm-filtered...

Be sure to reserve at recreation.gov before you go or you may not get a spot.
The campgrounds where clean and pretty and excellently maintained. Most campsites have water access Wich was nice. Bathhouse was not so clean and wasp where nesting in the hallway. Assumed because of a busy weekend they just hadn't gotten to it yet.
But other than uncontrollable cuircumstsances this was an excellent...
