There are plenty of trees for shade. The fee is $14 for entry and $7 to fish. This is a private camp site. The booking fee is $30+ per night plus $7 for the fishing fee. They have bench and BBQ grill stand for each site. The restroom is nearby. My friend caught some crappie, bluegill, and catfish fishing along the bank.

The lake is full and remains full from all the rain. The storms tend to change the clarity but it bounces back fairly quickly and really hasn't prevented people from catching. Alot of improvements have been made around the lake and starting to fill up for for the summer so hurry and make your reservations! Mon-Thurs 9-5 is the best time to call to book!

Although the campsites are a little close to each other it's a nice place to visit. The lake was full fishing was slow but it's a beautiful lake. Price for fishing. There is a little steep but that's the norm for lakes around the area unfortunately.
