Starve-Hollow State Recreation Area

It was lovely. The view of the lake from our camping spot was amazing. It rained while were were there. It was muddy and we had puddles, but we didn't get terribly flooded. (Electric Spot 67) If I had arrived there while it was raining I don't think I'd be too upset. I've seen muddier! There were plenty of trees. We were able to hang our hammock and lounger in the trees. We weren't as crowded as those who chose to camp on the water. The lake seemed overgrown, and we're not talking about the beautiful lily pads. the Vegetation could be seen on top of the water on some spots. There was better fishing to be had on kayaks and such. Otherwise if you weren't careful, you ended up with a lot of vegetation snagging your line. I think I kayaked about 3 times. That's a record for me on one camping trip. We had great ramp access from within the campground to the water. they had great access for fishing as well. We enjoyed so much of the lake and our campsite that we never made it to the trails. We were bummed that campstore was only open on the weekends, but they had a decent system for people needing the essentials: Ice, bait, and wood. We could always purchase it from the main gate as long as they were open. Controlling the vegetation in the lake and a bit cleaner/nicer comfort station is all I could ask for right now. (The status of the comfort station was at least sufficient)
