Very nice. Only wish cell service was better. Would have stayed a lot longer. Bathrooms were a mess and toilets plugged but that’s on those rude people that do not have respect for the facilities.

This is a relaxing, enjoyable location. There is road noise from the freeway, but we did not find it to be an issue. There is good trail access for hikers and bikers. There are many unshaded locations and the grounds are primarily pavement or sand/gravel. The facilities are well kept. It was a fantastic stop for a couple nights on our way through.

This is a convenient location, located off the freeway, but the noise isn't too bad as the campsites are somewhat away from the road. The bathrooms are basic but functional.

Fee to reserve ahead of time was too high. Campground was fine. Strong winds broke my tent poles. I am not sure if the wind is typical.

It was 103 degrees when we arrived and the campground was deserted with the exception of one other traveler the circled the grounds and left. We were pleasantly surprised that the restrooms were air conditioned. Even still we decided to depart for a cooler location and looked upon the campground fee as a donation since it was nonrefundable.
