    We came for a turn n burn, got in early enough that Trigger and I got to 2.5 mile walk around the park. We love walkin in leaves and lots of views of the lake. Sadly, it was only 1 night.

    Awesome Thousand Trails park but needing some major TLC. Roads are very bad and the sites need some clean up. So many yearly campers with lots of junk around their sites. It was a very peaceful stay for us. We will stop back when in the area.

    Gorgeous place to camp! Pricey though. It's nice right on the lake with plenty to do like their mini golf, playground, pool, game building and bathrooms with showers! Always a great time and we will be back often!
