Our site #71 is the perfect site to enjoy the views of Center Hill Lake.

Every morning we walked the campground.

 
Most mornings there is a slight fog over the lake.

    Well your site is fantastic and I want to know what you are hanging those feeders on and where they travel. I love them and haven't had any because we so seldom have any where to hang them and one of those metal poles is too long for any of our compartments. AND what a beautiful place Butterfly Hollow is. I look at those pictures and because I've lived that life in a more humble abode, I think of all the work to maintain the grounds and gardens. LOL is that a grape arbor with the table at the end?? Great post! Thanks SO much!!
