It's tough to post updates about the park and campground this morning when there is so much devastation around us following the recent flooding. Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone who has been affected.

Pictured are just a few of the trees that will be planted throughout the park. In the years to come, they will provide much-needed shade and add more beauty to these grounds.

We're looking to brighter days ahead.

Reminder you still have time to camp, Camplife.com or call us in the office we'd be glad to help you book. 765.647.4422
