Learn more about alerts →Families who snag a lakeside site early will get the most out of this place: water access, short hiking loops, a swim area, and a fishing dock all within easy walking distance of camp. Summer weekdays are the sweet spot before weekend crowds fill the 48-site loop.
Light sleepers and quiet-seekers will struggle here. Sound travels across the water, the campground runs family-loud on weekends, and the restrooms are dated with token-operated showers and often just one stall available for women.

Summer delivers the warmest, driest conditions and the best lake access. Daytime highs sit in the mid-60s to mid-70s, nights drop into the 50s. The swim area is active, and kayaks and paddleboards have usable water levels. Weekends draw moderate crowds; weekdays stay peaceful. Late summer can bring low water that exposes shoals and shrinks the swimming area. Spring and early summer keep the lake fuller, though colder. Winter fishing is an option, but some amenities operate on reduced seasonal schedules.
Warmest, driest season; swim area active and kayak rentals begin in summer for best lake access.

Small, wooded state-park campground with restrooms and showers, a day-use picnic area by the lake, a boat launch for small boats/kayaks, and a group campsite. A few sites have utility hookups but most lakeside sites are dry; staff/hosts maintain grounds.
