We stayed at site 15 for two nights. Site is on the lake with steps dug out for lake access. Our only complaint was that 2 women, their 3 children and with their dog decided that the area directly in front of us was a perfect place to stay all day. Played the radio loudly and swearing at the kids. I know it’s picky but come on!
If we check in our campsite on time
And then leave can we return at 10pm
Or so? Or do gates close into the park?
HI Ashley,
Campers can come and go 24 hours and access the campground. I recommend calling the park just in case something has changed: 803 482-6401
