★★★★★Gwendolyn FitznerAmazing trip
★★★Autumn FlanaganI was a camper there in 2022 it was really fun but the showers did not have hot water AT ALL it was freezing cold I came out shivering and it was 100 outside. If you go bring perfume deodorant etc because the lake left a bad Odor on you. Also if you go you may get homesick because me and a lot of the other girls there got homesick. Any other way it was really fun
★★★★claireIt was great and I'm a camper. But... We had to Lose Bill Bob and Wanda the stick.
★★★★★Alicia DoverBeautiful camp! Some cabins are very rustic, but the lodge is large and fully appointed and parts are air conditioned. Shower house is very clean and has hot water for showers.
