Great location with lots of vegetation, was easily able to hammock camp. The campsite was really close to quick hikes with amazing views. Definitely recommend visiting the campsite and the area.

Nice campsite! Quiet with well-spaced camp-sites. Many camp sites have stairs up or down to reach them and are more of a "walk in" site, but it does add a bit of isolation. Water and primitive toilets available throughout the campground with centralized showers and flush toilets. A few items seemed to need maintenance, but it didn't disrupt our stay. We really appreciated the hikable trails accessible from the campground, and others in close proximity!

Host was great and allowed us to choose a different site than what we reserved. Bathrooms, sadly, are terrible. Broken unusable shower stall as well as a sink wrapped in plastic. broken shower drains. The USFS needs to maintain this gem of a campground. campsites are great and flat. Some dish wash areas also were not working.

The campground was well-maintained. Campsites were large and secluded. It was very quiet and peaceful.

Campground was very quiet and spacious! Bathrooms and showers were adequate but not sparkling clean. One sink and one shower were out of order the entire time we stayed. This was a no frills kind of campground, but provided a very peaceful stay. The surrounding area offered endless hiking and amazing views!

We had a large group covering multiple campgrounds, and the campground was perfect for what we need. We thoughoughly enjoyed the sites which were very clean and well configured. We had multiple questions for the hosts and they were very helpful and friendly, always going above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. Not having electricity at the sites made it much quieter than other campgrounds, and it was convenient having water spouts close to each site we had. Highly recommend!

Great campsite. The pit toilets could use some improvements and care, but the bathhouse was clean and a nice amenity. The area is beautiful and the campground well maintained.
