“Nice clean SF Campground with boat launch”

Overall Rating

Small SF campground with a better than average boat launch. Outhouses were clean, bug free and well kept. Nice short walking path next to lake that leads to a dirt road around the lake. Black fly and mosquito numbers were surprisingly low. Only drawback we found was that the campground is adjacent to a paved county road and vehicle tire noise was loud however the road is off the beaten path so traffic volume is low.
