Campsite was clean. Campground was quiet and tranquil. We did have cows roaming around but or kids loved them. Camp hosts were super friendly and kept us stocked with firewood.

This is beautiful campground. Perfect for spring and fall camping. Would probably be too hot in the summer months. Campsites are spacious. We stayed in 14 and had tons of room.

This is one of our favorite campgrounds because the sites aren't one on top of the other and it is usually quiet.

We absolutely loved this campgroud. Spaces are level and far apart, lots of hiking and exploring without needing to get into your car. Watch out for cow poop! free cows roaming everywhere. Wish they had hookups, but otherwise all was great

My family and I had a wonderful first visit to this camp site. It was clean and quiet and the camp hosts are so extremely friendly and welcoming! We will definitely go back. Lots of hiking area to explore around the site. Easy drive to Horton Creek for a great hike and splash in the creek. Highly recommended!
