- RMRusiana MosessonNov 25, 20253.0The lake is beautiful. Close to bathroom. The only things The showe head broke. And someone bang loudly when I was shower. So scary. And the light in bathroom turn off for some time. So dark and scary. The other bathroom, there is a cable plug to the bathroom from the camper next to woman bathroom, so the door can't close and the cold air came in. I felt not safe there. The first through 2 ND night were good. Until the third night. All that happened. It was very scary since some woman did not feel safe. The mother stayed inside bathroom to watch their kids when shower. I think there some camper used the electricity from the woman bathroom (near fishing areas)
