The only thing that was missing was a notice that this was a private event.

The setting was. gorgeous. I had to pick up trash from the fire pit from a previous group. We ran out of toilet paper in one of the restrooms but fortunately brought extra. We couldn’t find a trash can nearby the Ramada but used our own trash bags and walked to the large trash bin.

Great place to host a picnic reunion for a large (up to 100) group. Tables under a ramada which provided protection from sun and rain, close to public restroom, ADA accessible, good parking associated with the reservation separate from other users of the park. Area was clear of debris and garbage bags out for our use before we arrived. Park host was great communicator.
