It was a cute very close together campground... Dog friendly also.. The bathroom that is on site was well maintained but everyone used it... To the people using the campground to people hiking the trail that goes through or people just driving around the State Park. So bring toilet paper because it ran out fast! The campsite itself was cute, but there was a lot of glass everywhere, so be careful if walking around barefoot... The fire ring worked nicely... It had a grill grate attached to it, that you could move up and down.. They do have a coyote problem so you will hear them at night... We never had a problem with the wild life trying to get into any of our stuff tho. The trails went in every direction.. So make sure to bring a map or phone gps for just in case you get lost.
Went there camping for five days with a classmate at the age of fifteen in 1972. Went back myself in 2024 to see it one more time
The price (12$) is excellent, and the facilities quite nice, but the light by the bathroom is so painfully bright it makes it hard to sleep. I’d recommend camping in a spot that’s shaded from the light, like site #4.
Nice open area campground. Clean toilets and they have water. You have zero privacy so you can hear all of your neighbors conversations.
Clean, cheap, quiet, pretty spots for primitive camping. Vault toilets and a couple hydrants for water for everyone to share, no hook ups. Sites are relatively small but I managed to fit a 22 foot camper and an SUV with a little room to spare. Better suited for tent or car/van camping... don't bring your 40' 5th wheel!
