Raoul told me there is only 30 amps for four sites to share despite being a 30amp site. He was not happy that I had tripped the breaker for the second time on our stay and if it happened again, He said I would have to go to the office and they would have to decide if they would let us still have electricity. Raoul told me that our camper tripped three other sites off. We have a Victron system with a current limiter set to 30amps, while our rig's 30amp breaker, and the 30amp breaker at the pedestal all did not trip. I reduced our current limiter to 26 amps to prevent tripping anything again. Shortly after posting this info to Campendium, Dan came by to help. Really nice guy who wanted to help, but short of digging up and laying a new cable, there was not much he could do. I learned from him that our 30A pedestal is connected only by cable for 30A, instead of a higher capacity. He said others are not connected to our branch. So either Raoul or Dan was misinformed. Back to the solution, it would be better practice to use thicker cable that can carry 40 amps and have a 40amp breaker at the main to allow for overhead, while leaving a 30 amp breaker at the pedestal. I was seeing voltage around 106, using 3054 watts which is 28.8 amps when it tripped. In the morning hours, voltage would be around 123. If they were supplying 123 volts when I was using 3054 watts, the amperage would have dropped to 24.8. Insufficient cabling can definitely contribute to voltage drop.

They can't tell time well here. Went to buy ice 10 minutes before closing and told they would not sell it. Went to bathhouse 15 minutes before the posted closing time and was given grief being told, "This is closed, I guess you just don't care what the sign says."

Using the dump on the way out is wildly inconvenient. I had to do a k turn in an intersection in the campground with my rig to get to it.

The roads are too narrow! Getting into many sites is TIGHT!

Wifi from the park is limited to maybe 5-6 down.

We will not be back.

AT&T intermittent on an iPhone 11 Pro and basically not usable.
AT&T on Netgear hotspot, 2.5 down in camper, 6 down outside, 4ft from ground. Upload around 0.5.

Beach area four well to the left when facing the lake has shade very close to the water. That area is rocky in the water.

Showers are private and nice.

Water is a pain to fill fresh water tank in loop B because you will block the road. We drove down to loop C and found access without blocking the road.
