Beautiful campground surrounded by running water. Large sites and tall trees. Dogs on leash are OK.

5 sites, with plenty of room for multiple cars per site. Best sites are down near the bottom of the loop at the confluence of the two creeks. Very private, couldn't hear or see anyone from the other sites after dark.
Great little campground. Only 4 or 5 sites but the are spaced far apart. Small creek on both sides. Relatively clean vault toilets. Quiet and out of the way. Good camping option for those on the WABDR.
Small campground with quite a bit of active m/x bikes and horse riders passing by. Restrooms are a bit rough. Not maintained right now. Trails are fairly close by too..
