Get a premium site if you can. Totally worth it. There are bathrooms and showers available and easy to get to. There are washers and dryers on site. No issues with power hookups. These are dump sites so no sewer hookups. Sites are well spaced. There are boat docks. There is a putting course that is a little run down but still fun. You can rent clubs or bring your own.

This is such a beautiful park and now one of our favorites! I thought the cabins were going to be a bit older looking, but they were so cute with a nice view of the lake, a screened in porch overlooking the lake with rocking chairs. We even had 4 geese walk up to us at the cabin. There's a swimming beach, a putt-putt course, 2 playgrounds, a couple of hiking trails, an archery area, and several boat docks, and lots of areas to camp. The park is very nice and very well maintained. We loved that there wasn't a long drive to get to places inside the park. Often we have noticed it's a long drive to the cabins or camping area from the main activity area. I don't like that, but this park was only a very small drive. Highly recommend this beautiful park!

Looked everywhere for reviews on the cottages. Really could not find any. We needed a place that would accommodate us and our dogs. This was our very first actual vacation together including our dogs. I am actually not disappointed. The cottages are well equipped and definitely enough room. They are a little old and dated. Not the cleanest overall, but you are in the middle of nowhere in the woods!!! I would take them over a tent any day! Overall we are very satisfied and would definitely do it all over again! Well worth the 4 hour drive with 2 big dogs and one little one with a big attitude!

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Questions & Answers

Is this a good place for vacations?

Saiyan Gaming | Apr 9, 2019
brandon sikes | Apr 10, 2019

Absolutely!! Don't expect a lot of tourist type attractions though, or a wide variety of restaurants. Last I recall the closest gas station is about a 10-15 minute drive and they close at 8. Very peaceful place with lots of wildlife!!

how long do you have to get reservations

Amber Waters | Apr 9, 2020

For camper sites you have to reserve them for atleast 2 nights. And you can make reservations the day before if you want, but the sooner the better if you'd like to get a good spot.
