Customer Reviews
Beautiful location. Clean well maintained state campground. Staff is friendly and helpful. We stayed in the cabins halfway up the mountain. They are new, well built and well maintained. They have a composting toilet facility near by that was extremely clean and well kept. You do have to drive to the main campground at the bottom to use the showers.
Staff is great. Wood is available to buy as is ice at the campground. Quarter operated showers. Nice trails, drive to the top of the mountain and trails up there are worth it. Bathrooms on the side with the higher number sites are newer. You can hear highway traffic at all sites but if you don't mind some road sounds it's fine.
Hard to judge what rating to give this place, would have been 3 stars but I'll give them the benefit of the doubt. Our picnic table was missing when we arrived. Unfortunately we got there every evening after they closed, our last night there the table had magically reappeared. Road noise is the worst we've experienced at a campground. Not unbearable but it does affect sleep slightly. Showers take quarters but on the last night it wouldn't take more than two, (4mins worth) both for men's and women's showers. Bathrooms were always clean. Lean to sites seem newer and had plenty of space. Sites come with a fire ring... usually a picnic table as well. Would stay again but would make sure to get there before close to make sure everything is right.
Took the the slot trail to the observation tower. We are not avid hikers but we made it. The slab trail is supposed to be easier going up, we did take the slab trail back down. The view was worth the hike up to the tower. Many more trails. Maybe we will return one day. Camoing is available here.
Wish we could have enjoyed more of it.. the road was closed to vehicles when we arrived and my dad couldn't walk the whole way to the top but what we saw was nice.
