Our second time, and not the last!
Wow, the place is so upgraded since we were here a couple years ago! The glamping looks rustic and lovely, but we prefer tent camping at this site for the stunning views of the lake. Make sure to bring an EZ-Up as there is no shade. The mornings are chilly and dewy, so be prepared to cover anything up you leave outside! The heat ramps up around 9 a.m. so things will quickly dry if you forgot. Yes, there are annoying bugs. You're in nature. Bring repellent or a citronella candle. Watch out for your food! Turkey vultures and other birds fly overhead to see if you left any crumbs for them :)
Bring binoculars! We saw a bald eagle! Around midnight the stars shine brighter, so look up to the satellites and shooting stars.
The porta potties are clean, but NOW they also have a beautiful bathroom with flushing toilet and a porcelain sink. There's also a hand and dish washing area w/soap available. The outdoor showers are a luxurious addition (they are stocked with bathing toiletries & hot water).
Nikki and her family are very friendly and accommodating. We chose to go horseback riding, and Emma, our guide, was very sweet and knowledgeable of the beautiful, well-cared for horses, and the gorgeous trails we trekked. Highly recommend!
The marina is a quick 3 min drive down the hill. I recommend just paying the parking fee, as it is quite a walk up the hill back to the campsite after a fun, long day in the sun kayaking.
We will be back again!
