Beautiful lake access with gorgeous vantage to watch the sunset. Can be a little crowded, there are excellent amenities which draw sometimes too many people for my taste of outdoors. But great for something close, accessible and romantic. It really is a magical place to fall in love

I'm pretty sure that it was coming Labor Day week after families have to go home for kids' school - peaceful, laid-back, beautiful. RV camping water & electric hook-ups only. We brought our kayaks & bikes. Motor boats were here as well. The bathhouse was fairly clean and accessible. We look fwd to returning here.

It’s a pretty lake, really nice view, I’ve been twice the most recent on the fifth of July VERY BUSY, luckly we found parking and a nice place to settle, my sister loved the playground and swing set, mom enjoyed walking along the coast. Water was a bit dirty, but expected as many people were in the water. Sadly there was someone smoking about 50 yards infront of us and the wind blew the smoke up to us :(

Beautiful lake and rec area. Had a great weekend! Took a little hike and swam the days away. The day use areas were really nice and clean but we spent most of our time at the campers only beach at our campground.
