Weekend Trip to Vagabond Resort & Campground

Great site. Dog friendly. There is a real bathroom with plumbing and real showers. The firewood they have for sale burns for a long time.

After a nice long conversation with Yvonne and her husband and telling me about their campground, the local places to see and my camping site, I can say I’m very happy and will come back again in the near future. For the LADIES this campground has clean bathrooms and showers, THAT’s the reason why I came to this campground. A+++ For the GENTLEMEN you have access to the lake and have your boat on the campground dock. A+++
