Campground 1 opened on Friday evening May 2nd. It took a while to get the septic system back up and running as all the lines had to be jetted out, then the pumps replaced as the gravel and mud in them permanently ruined them. One benefit is that all of campground 1 was upgraded to 50 amp service.
There is still a lot of work to do - replacing bridges, fences and soil and a little bit of cleanup, but the park is fully operational other than that some of the craft cabins are not usable yet. They have never had a flood like this.
The park lost a lot of trees in the April 27th, 2011 tornadoes and it is a miracle that no one was hurt then.
The new storm shelter not quite operational (no electricity and bathrooms not operational yet) but they had us go in it during the storms last week.
It's a great park, there is a lot to see and do. If you can, schedule your visit during an iron pour and you can make your own to bring home.
