I’ve stayed here twice now and both times I’ve been pleasantly impressed by how clean and comfortable this campsite is. The large fire pits and beautiful scenery were my favorite.

I attempted to stay overnight but had to leave because of nonstop barking dogs. I have never experienced such disruption at any campground, especially at this campsite, and I am very disappointed.

The trash dumpster was locked closed, so everyone was piling trash around it, and animals and wind was spreading it everywhere. Don't know where the camp host was (never saw them), or why they weren't tending to this issue. I spent a lot of time cleaning trash from our campsite. Much of the campground is next to a busy road, so lots of road noise. We were camped during the week, so not many campers, and not much in the way of motorcycles / OHV noise, so that was good.

This place is incredible! Tall trees and huge boulders. Stunning location. Close to the action but tucked away.

Campsite 2 had a couple sandy clearings that could easily fit both an RV and tent.

Toilets were not great, but we didn’t care. Bring exact change if you’re paying on site.
