The Horseshoe Loop Group AreaHorseshoe Loop

Tent Group Area. This area was added for 2003 and is our largest group tent camping area. It it located on the hillside above the Open Camping Area and covers over 5 acres of land. The biggest difference between the horseshoe loop and all of the other group camps is the terrain is not terraced into level pads in the horseshoe loop, so you can expect to have the tents located on slight slopes. Because there aren't level pads, this area is not recommended for trailers or RV's, unless you bring blocks to level the rigs with. Includes reserved group tables & BBQ. Drinking water faucet and chemical toilet facilities available nearby. Shaded mornings and afternoons.

Seating for approx. 24 people.
Open during the Summer & Fall months only.

Group Camping in Individual Sites
Groups may reserve as many RV hookup sites as they need in the main campground. Many of these are directly on the lakefront or quite close. Our goal will be to keep groups as close together as possible.

Rates will be the same as those published in the current rate schedule. Reservations may be made over a year in advance. For Group Reservations, call 1-800-286-0576.

One popular area for RV groups is 12 sites located directly along the lakefront in the number series 202 to 222. These sites are located away from the rest of the campground, so groups have more privacy there. All of these sites have electric and water hookups and were built to accomodate larger RV’s. There is a special meeting area below site 210 with large group tables and BBQ.
