Sites can handle equipment lengths up to 59 feet with 50-amp electric service available at most sites. The campground features modern amenities including bath houses with showers, comfort stations, dump stations, and water drinking stations throughout. Each campsite includes a fire ring, grill, and picnic table. The park offers extensive recreational opportunities including hiking and biking trails, fishing access, playgrounds, and volleyball courts. Pets are welcome when kept on a 6-foot leash. Reservations are available through ReserveAmerica up to 6 months in advance. The campground operates seasonally, typically from early May through mid-November. A maximum of 6 people are permitted per site, with one main unit, one additional tent, and one dining fly allowed.
