Customer Reviews
We got in a bit late, but that's not the campground's fault. It's lower on the mountain so it was warmer sleeping conditions than I prepared for, listening to the stream running was quite nice. Just wasn't impressed with the state of the vault toilet bathroom, I know it's a glorified outhouse but yeesh. Also the wasp swarm around the picnic area in the morning, and no I didn't have sweets out. At least they weren't Yellow Jackets as I could move things, but elected to leave because of my dogs. Would camp again in a different spot
Beautifully wooded area. Seasonal water flow in the creek. Clean camp sites and outhouses. Food lockers to protect such from wildlife. Grills and fire rings. Nice first come first serve selection of sites. Does not accommodate large tents, no hookups, no RV spaces.
So much fun and such a good price! They just need to clean the outhouse more often though.
Great hiking trails and campsites are nice. Wonderful adventure
This is a great experience if you're a tent camper. It's not really set up for RVs.
