Nice place, especially for tents. At the lake under trees, good lawn to fasten the tent anchors. Seating available (2x). New wash house is good (clean but might be a bit cramped when space is full). The old one is, let's call it "somewhat rustic". The staff is very friendly and you can get a lot in the well-stocked shop. Would go back anytime.
