Great Spot!

Sites are a little close and sharp turns coming in. Pads are level, bathrooms are clean. Everything is kinda spread out as far as bathrooms houses or playgrounds for the kids. Really nice and quiet tho.

Wonderful stay!

Loved my site- I’m a tent camper and my tent just fit on the site- I had a tent footprint and padding inside my tent so as not to damage the tent floor - the site is a paved site meant for campers but I wanted to be by the creek! The bathrooms were in great condition and the camp hosts were very friendly!

Great place

This place is so beautiful.  The lake is amazing. hey have canoes, paddle boards and kayaks. Pretty quick at night and the kids around the around rode bikes for ever! The wifi did not work. And if you have a big RV you can not camp in the Creekside area. You will have to go to Burson which is outside the "camping area". Great hiking also. There are many cabins and very nice and clean. Really enjoyed our stay. Camp  area was full ost of the time.
