I think another member here just went up there Saturday and he ran over some Copperheads. I ran over several Copperheads on the road to Piney last season at this time.
Just be careful but make her aware that she will "probably" see one or two on the roads in the evenings.

I've heard many stories as you obviously have about all the snakes (copperheads and rattlesnakes) at LBL. I've turkey hunted and deer hunted there for years. Probably walked 100 miles over the years and I've seen one "black" snake in the woods. Hope to never see a copperhead or rattlesnake \:D

Seen 2 rattle snakes in the woods 0 copperheads in the woods. Seen 100's of copperheads in the road of the evening over the years. Seen 6 last Friday and Saturday evening but keep in mind I probably drove 50 miles those two evenings.

Here is a pic of the rattler I found last season.


I love to backwoods camp and don't give the snakes a second thought but personally I would stick to Piney or Wrangler campground with the wife and kids never seen a snake there in close to 20 years. Good luck and hope you have fun its an awesome place to hunt and camp.
