There are more rules and regulations coming down the pike, and they are planning to expand to add even more slips.

If you have a hankering for getting out into the wilderness of the world, the second best option to…read moreBear country would be Middle Creek lake. Save for the select few creeper vans loitering in the six or so camping spots, this place is wild. Metcalf avenue literally goes through the center of this lake! As you're driving down medcalf you can see the road go into the water and you can see the other side of the road on the other side of the lake! It has unbelievable bass fishing, it's a bit Rocky on the western part of the lake, so take note. Very shallow on the eastern part of the lake, great for crappie and bluegill. I go to Middle Creek regularly for fall and winter day camps. We go out there and make a fire and go catfishing all day long, have a little picnic. It's very secluded and intimate. I've been there dozens of times, once I went out there and seasoned a hammer-forged wok over a roaring camp fire. Careful of the hackberry trees and there massive thorns that happened to me everywhere, but the park service does a pretty good job of keeping this place tidy. There is however a bunch people that go out there with lots of trash and throw it in the fireplace right before they leave so, sometimes you have quite a bit of trash to pick out because who the hell burns garbage? But fishing is great on this lake, and if you have a fish finder and go out by Metcalf you can actually detect the road under the water and on either side there's so many species of fish that it's worth a days travels! The boat ramp is all gravel and dirt, so there's that. Still good though. Happy fishing!

Our camp neighbors warned us the portable toilet was in an awful state, and to go to the other campground close by. At least one of the sinks at the location didn't work, but there was soap and no hand sanitizer. In the evening it was somewhat noisy off the lake and if memory serves, things with the humans settled down around midnight. Short jaunt to the lakeshore, there was plenty of trash near the woodsy side not so much near the lake itself. I didn't have the opportunity to explore any trails that could be there, so here's hoping next time I'm here, I will.

They called today and wanted to setup our agreement just in time for me to pay through the winter. The guy was a jerk and rude when I asked, knowing it was non-refundable, for a refund. I think a reasonable company would say, we didn't hold up our end of the deal. We will give you a refund on your deposit. Instead I got excuses about the extenuating circumstances, covid, a drowning, etc. Covid wasn't new this winter, so that isn't a good excuse and what a horrible person to use a tragic drowning as crutch to get around his side of the deal. By the "letter of the law" they did nothing wrong but it sure reveals their character. So, he wants me to consider extenuating circumstances, but he doesn't want to grant the same to the people that expected to use the lake this summer. This review won't hurt them as the waiting list was very long to get in the slips but I hope it at least alerts people to the type of people they are working with.
