Camp host was friendly and helpful. Vault toilets were clean and well stocked. Area was clean. Nice sites. Beautiful place! There were some pay showers at the beginning of the loop. Definitely going back!
It's a nice quiet place, it has a water station and clean enough bathrooms. The spot by the bathroom gets light up a lot in the night. There are a lot of silky worms hanging, flying and dropping everywhere. The manager said they are treating the area for weevil beetle, so is in recovering mode. He was helpful and agreeable. We got to see some deer in the morning. 😃
Excellent location and experience. Place is well regulated to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for anyone in the camp grounds.
Our second time here. Love this campground. Peaceful nature trails within the campground and another just down the road. The camp hosts were very nice. Only downside is this is a no reservations campground- which is ok. But when other campers “save” spots for others isn’t fair to those that actually show up with their gear or trailers.
This was over a holiday weekend where unfortunately several sites where like this. Luckily we got the last one.
