Trying to find out information about this place was a dead end because the website and the phone number doesn't work, so I drove out here to take a look and it's still an active campground, nice big lots, very quiet, but no running water or electricity with camping toilets (not porta potties). Some people had campers but the road in is pretty rough so be wary.
