Learn more about alerts →Spring weekday anglers and birders get the best of this place: the marsh pulls herons during migration, the 18-acre lake is steps away, and the wooded sites are genuinely spacious. The park host keeps things clean and the shower house earns consistent praise.
Full-hookup RV travelers will hit a wall here, no on-site dump station means a 10-mile run to Marshall. Low-lying sites also puddle badly after rain, and summer weekends bring both mosquito clouds from the marsh and occasional loud neighbors.

Spring delivers the best conditions: daytime highs in the 50s to 70s°F, cool nights, and active wildlife as the lake warms and wildflowers bloom along the trails. Full amenities (water hookups, showers) are available April 15 through October 31. Expect heavy mosquito activity near the marsh from late spring through summer. The park stays open November through March in a quieter, more basic mode. Weekdays are consistently less crowded than weekends.
