My husband stayed here in a tent campsite. Check-in was easy, and the woman working the desk was very friendly. The bath houses were clean. Our campsite was nice. The steps down to the beach are steep, but we went up and down them many times with no issues. The beach below is beautiful and isolated. We really enjoyed our stay and plan on going again!

I use to camp here from the ages 5-19 man was i excited to come back for my kids to enjoy what I got to experience! WRONG!!! Rules upon rules some I would understand but the dumb ones really kill the feel of camping and having fun. We use to go into the field at night to watch the stars… can’t do that anymore! Kids can’t be kids and play without you basically having them on a leash the whole time! Bathrooms absolutely terrible crap on the walls and stalls. Sad to say but not sure if we will ever be back! Really went down hill from where it use to be.

Great time. Nice venue. Beautiful views of the lake. I'm older, so the beds could have been more comfortable... buy it's camp, not The Hilton. Good job, YMCA.
