What campers say

Small, lakeside campground with five walk-in tent sites set right on the water, offering private-feeling pitches separated by shrubs and direct shore access. Sites are largely first-come, first-served: you park in a paved lot and walk to your spot. Amenities are minimal—basic pit toilets/porta-potties and a simple restroom—so plan accordingly. The site is conveniently close to a nearby general store and is best for tent campers seeking a quiet, scenic stay rather than hookups or full-service comforts. A few visitors mentioned the restrooms and parking area could use additional upkeep.
