Great spot (Site 10). Close to the restrooms and separated enough from the other campers. A bit of road noise…but nothing too extreme. Creek was awesome, as well as the views!

Site was overgrown and not maintained. There was cow parsnip moving in to the area which made it hard to keep our dog outside when we were out. If it is raining the site will flood.

Campground suffering from neglect. Site posts in serious need of paint. One site post rotted off at base and propped up against a bush. Site 4 (unoccupied) had trash strewn about and appeared to be there for some time. Never seen campground host. Left after one day on a 3 day reserve.

Our reserved spot was occupied when we arrived. The occupants showed us that the reservation card on the post showed only a party arriving the following night. They occupied the site only because it wasn’t posted as reserved for that night. I showed them my phone with my paid reservation and they offered to move. Because they were completely set up I just asked them to pay me for the site and stayed else where.

This was one of my first times "car camping" in a campground. I was a little dismayed to find generators rumbling in the campground. I guess I was hoping for more of a wilderness experience but in talking with others, realize that that was pretty unrealistic. Most people these days are "camping" in large RVs complete with generators and sound systems. Everyone was respectful and the campground, while well used and trampled, was clean and neat. Thanks to everyone who maintains the campground!

Camping sites were very clean. Wood tables were well made. The rivers edge was clean of garbage.

Scenic area. Scout the campground if you have a bigger trailer, the advertised sizes are not accurate at all, and this campground is more conducive to rpods, scamps, and tents…but it is scenic
