Confirmed by 1 users | Last reported on July 23, 2023Nice little state camping grounds. We just stopped there for a night on our way out to Salt Lake for a family Thanksgiving. When we stayed the place was full of Hunters with a few bucks hanging after a successful hunt. Nice facilities with a friendly host (don't let the dog scare ya, he's all bark). Bathrooms were nothing fancy but reasonably clean. Spacing was a little tight for my taste but nothing link a KAO. The park itself was very pretty.

Lake is for fishing/boating only with swimming not permitted. Our impression was that mostly locals frequent this campground. The sites are close together, though about 25% were out-of-service due to electrical issues, which gave us a buffer on one side. No water at any campsites and a single dump station. There is a nice 3.25 mile trail around the lake though it is poorly marked and easy to lose. The camp hostess was perhaps vacationing, as we never saw her, though a camp employee told us that the "Campground" WiFi was for her use only, so no passwords were given out. Even with a cell booster, I could get only 1 bar on Verison and 2 bars on ATT, with frequent drops and with no spot to get a clear view of the skies for Starlink, this isn't digital nomad friendly. They are looking for someone to manage the lake concession, so until that is resolved the nearest food or gas is McLeansboro about 9 miles to the west.
