Some mention

crowded

"Campers consistently praise Group Campground for its trails, lake access (fishing dock and beach), peaceful friendly atmosphere, and well-shaded grassy sites—many describe it as a beautiful, memorable place for families and groups. Experiences vary on facilities: some sites (e.g., #132, #40) and trails/playground receive strong praise, but reviewers note problems like algae in Lake Bronson, swim-area weeds, poison ivy, occasional crowding, and inconsistent bathhouse condition."
