Reviews
- ★★★★★over 2 years agoAbsolutely gorgeous. We go every summer and look forward to it each year. The trails are beautiful, and you can rent a canoe to explore the far side of the lake. Definitely worth the trip!
- ★★★★★over 1 year agoSeems like some maintenance of the water was neglected and resulted in outdoor showers at the beach not working. Also the swim zone seems to be smaller as it seems like they move the yellow line closer to the sand beach. It is still great outdoor place to hangout!
- ★★★★★over 3 years agoIt's a long drive but definitely worth it. The water was super clean, we could stand shoulder deep and still see our toes, sand bottom. Family friendly, small bbq's around for cooking, a stand to buy snacks and drinks, showers to rinse off, and bathrooms.
- ★★★★★over 2 years agoGood for a weekend camping trip. My favorite part is hiking to the top of Johnson Mountain on the East side of the lake. The view is amazing.
- ★★★★★over 1 year agoIt's worth going! Great family atmosphere. There are plenty of venues for shade and for grilling! There are grills on the grounds. Dog friendly, just not on the beach.
