Enjoyed the campground for 3 days this weekend. We enjoyed the nice warm sun, woke up to 4" of wet snow, enjoyed a nice Blizzard. Plenty of cliff views. Good campsites and restroom facility.
This place was great, it was nice and quiet. It is first come first serve. We stayed in campsite #9 right by the water with great views away from the road so it was nice and quiet. Biggest complaint is there's only one bathroom in our loop, it is really dusty in all the campsites and there are tons of yellow jackets buzzing around!
