Excellent! The sites are really well spaced-out. Even though it was fully booked over the weekend, we felt very private and secluded. It was very quiet and peaceful at night. Bathrooms are very clean and don't stink (a miracle with pit toilets). Water spigots are never too far away. Nederland is an easy 10 minutes up the road if you forget anything. I love that each pitch has large bear locker, big sturdy picnic table and fire pit with cooking grates.

Even though the NFS website states there's "little to no shade", it's not a barren wasteland or anything like that. Most pitches seemed to have trees for shade, and you still felt like you were among the forest.

Don't show up at 9:30 on a Saturday and expect to get a spot. Pitches 1-20 are FCFS.

Two things to know before you go: firewood isn't as plentiful to gather as we thought it might be. You might be able to gather enough if you're really dedicated and have an axe/saw, but otherwise plan on purchasing. Or maybe there's better on other parts of the campground, I don't know.

Do NOT book pitch 29, as it's almost on top of the playground with zero privacy. All other pitches are generally great (a few are too close to the bathrooms for my taste), but this one is truly awful.
