Very clean campground and facilities. Large open field for games. Wonderful ramada and grill. Tent area is somewhat hilly and surrounding forest is very hilly.

Site was clean and easy to access. Very nice campsite with plenty of space to stretch out without feeling like another site was right on top of your area.

The camp hosts were excellent last year. Too many dogs barking is the only negative.

This is a great campground with ample spacing and placement of sites to give you some privacy. The location is 10 min from the top of the rim and the 300 rd turn off, so its close to all of the fishing and outdoor activities the Rim has to offer. It is also about 2 minutes from Christopher Creek where there are a couple of restaurants and some services. It is a hidden Gem
