Big campground - small site

First time at this campground and a last minute reservation on our way to Zilpo National Boone Forest Campground. We decided to grab a campsite here on a whim and hoped for the best with the site we choose. It was an okay site. It was small and dropped off from our camper door side.  The fire ring was on the other side of the pad and was really close to the road and camper. It did not look used or cleaned out - there was grass/weeds growing out of it. We set up our ez-up as far back of the road as we could, but the sun still hit us (not really any shade) in the middle of the day. The trees were dropping nuts all weekend - tent or camper, you were going to get hit. The pad was not very level either - I am not sure we'd choose this site again, but the loop we were on itself was nice and a little more secluded. The downside, no bathroom/shower house on the loop which meant you need to walk to the end of the loop and go down another to get to one. Bright side - the shower house was clean, good flush toilets and okay showers. The campground is gigantic - lots of places to walk. The boat ramp is at the end of the campground and you can kayak too. Lots of kids and very family oriented. 

We drove around the lake to the dam to check out some of the hiking areas. While we were on our way back out from the bottom of the dam we found a pull off so we parked and went down a short trail and found a fantastic creek! The water was low so our dog got to play and it was beautiful! We'll go back to camp and make sure to visit this little hole again.
