People who run the place are awesome and super friendly. The people who camp there are as well. My girlfriend and I enjoyed every second of our stay! The showers were definitely an attractive outdoorsy experience. Campsites all were kept up with, the your was informative. I can't comment on the lake, I didn't take the time to see it sadly but I bet that is well worth it. We had all the privacy we needed. Already recommended the place to family and friends out on the east coast!

Beautiful location, very private and lots of nice options for tent camping. We ended up not staying the night however, because we were covered in ticks. We took bug spray, but we must have picked thirty ticks off of ourselves and our dogs. And we’re still finding ticks on the dogs two days later. Other than that, the site was perfect.

Booked with Jackson due to the fact that I was attending the Calf Fry Festival that was less then 5 minutes away. The communication between us were quickly addressed. The tent location had chosen was moved to a new location due to Oklahoma's ass wanting to dump gallons of rain. Not the fault of Jackson. It was a great time to get away and relax. Walked to the pond and tossed a lure for awhile. Would us again for next year's Calf Fry.
