A loop. There are a couple of deep back-ins and a pull through near the bathhouse.

Aren't all of the ones on A loop walk up only. If I remember rite those are the ones rite on the water. We went down for a weekend last year and they wouldn't let us reserve those.. I could be and probably am mistaken..

Actually "A LEG" sites 1, 2 and 3 are pretty nice if I remember right. 3 was the pull through. Check online though Reserve America or similar for more info. Should be able to reserve them

By "walk up" I meant no reservations.

I'm curious which campground you all are talking about. That is probably what my wife and I will be doing and I would like to be near some of the other participants.

Lithia springs campground is just past the boat launch and marina entrance.
Also only 2 minutes from the cottages where most stay!

Well, most of the sites were reserved so we called and asked about larger sites. The guy suggested the area around 115-117. So we are booked for thursday and leaving Sunday! Site 116! Let us know if you wanna come visit for s'mores and grilling out!

Almost confirmed my other parties! Looks like i will have 6-10 adults and 2-3 boats. They are interested in the raft up from time to time and also participating in the big meal and maybe even giveaways. And guess what, they have a tige and other couple may be buying a ski nautique! The kid count will have us outnumbered for sure though!

Link with info is on page #1. Edit to add: I think it is $1.25 per foot for an overnight slip.

I updated the list this morning....... @Nathan Bryant & @buckbuck - I assume you are coming and just haven't booked your house on 16th street yet. That would be weird, not having you and crew in attendance. It was weird not having @Wake08 (Don and Lindsay) last year, but we understood. They will be there this year, so all that is good is restored in the universe.

Don't count me out yet but it looks like I may have to cancel. I might be on a fishing trip in Minnesota that weekend. I'll keep you all posted.
