We visited mod week in October. Many open sites. Very quiet and well maintained. We'll be back!

Visit Date: May 2-10,2023: This is a nice campground with a beautiful 650 acre lake! Here is why I deducted a star. The gypsy moths are back and I read on FB where the campground manager said sorry they can't treat them due to the campground being open. That is a sad statement after knowing full well they were inundated with them last season (2022) and made many camping trips less enjoyable than they should have been. Being proactive this season and treating the trees before the May 1,2023 campground opening date would been the proactive, best management practice to initiate. Instead they seemed to ignore hoping they would go away and
they did not. Now we have to endure another season of not being able to sit outside if you have a site with trees.
I found it interesting that the surrounding mountains and woods were being sprayed by airplane the week of May 5th + with the campground full and right in the path of the spray, but management states their is nothing they can do within the campground???????
So in closing what lesson did you learn a few years ago when the 200+ ash trees needed to be removed from within the park? There was no cure for the ash borer but their is for the gypsy moth, don't let it kill more trees within the park!!

We enjoy walks around the park. However, be sure to check your site as the last two trips here we experienced having to report the previous visitors failed to clean up after their pets.

The campground is kept in tip top shape and is very clean. Best campground around in my opinion.
