Wonderful experience. Accessibility from I 70 was welcome! Spencer was super nice and accommodating. You can tell he would help anyone with anything. The park is well kept and has all the amenities one needs- dog park, laundry, clean bathrooms, homey little pavilion with a barbecue and firewood for the fire pit. Definitely would stay here again if in the area. Reasonable prices too.

Awesome camp ground, awesome place and definitely not hard to get to. We enjoyed our stay here, even w/ the crazy wasps that seem to over take our camp site. It was nicer at night when they went away. Each site had a bear box, where other campgrounds in the same area did not. Our site was kept well in the back, and only had one neighbor. Definitely will come back here again! Our site was the only tent site surrounded by RV sites, so we did not have a back into driveway, which was fine w/ us. Although if you have a trailer, it may not work.

This is a quiet and friendly campground. The back connects to a hiking trail all the way up to Haskell Peak (a fun hike), there is a creek with trout for fishing, and the camp host is always fantastic!

Dirty haphazard and confusing camping zones. Old bathroom vault. Bugs. So many bugs.

Beautiful. The only issue was a lack of running water. Only one hand pump water faucet for the whole facility.
