Camp is very shady with no sunny beach or area other than the individual campsites to hang out. Having running water in the bathroom was nice but wish they had showers too. We couldn’t even find a sunny place to hang the solar shower so def made it more of a roughing it experience and the whole campsite felt a bit dirty. There was one wagon available to haul the gear to the sites and it was definitely needed. Not having the car close to the campsite made us wish we went for the glamping structures which would have eliminated half of the gear needed and made everything cleaner being up off the ground. There are a lot of different options in the area so not sure if I would stay at mary smith again but maybe try one of the other places instead just to experience something new. We stayed mid week and there was only one other campsite occupied so it was very quiet and peaceful. The lake is spectacular and it was so nice to be right there at the waters edge. But I would recommend staying in the glamping units for the best experience at this campsite.

Oh my gosh, I should have believed the reviewers who commented on the poison oak. As someone who is highly reactive, I can never go back to MS, which is a bummer because my non-reactive family had a really nice time on the lack. I'm not sure what the overseeing body is that would be responsible for cutting it back, but for some of us it's a bonafide public health hazard. Please consider at least mitigating oak growth in the campsites themselves. It was untenable. (And yes, even with great care I still got it.) Thank you!
