Customer feedback highlights the campground's appeal:

"This is a really nice campground out in the woods off a dusty road. It has two small spring-fed lakes that you can swing and fish in. This place has a lot of different-sized camping spots and water hookups too."
"As others have posted, this place is beautiful and remote. Be warned though, I was here mid-September 2018. There is a nearby logging operation and at 3:30 AM an incredibly loud and large water truck passes directly through the campground on the way to the lake to fill its tanks. It makes its way back out about a half-hour later then repeats the cycle approximately every 2 hours until early afternoon. I would not recommend trying to sleep here until this ends."

It's a long bumpy ride into a nuked out forest literally every tree is burnt too a crisp. But the ponds at the meadow are beautiful and there are still some green trees around the pond lots of shade and very quiet.

Beautiful ponds, but the shade is no more, devastated by August Complex Fire in 2020. I don't think they stock it anymore or if it's safe, the burned trees could drop branches.

There is a lot of post-fire clean-up to do here. Fallen trees have made a mess. There are CXT restrooms, tables, fire pits, etc. Don't miss the Street View. Plaskett Station on the main road was used until '89? or '95?
