Nice campground except for someone's noisy generator running most of the day.

Nice place to camp with the family. Already planned another trip for the end of March. The only drawback was the online pictures. I made the reservation online and the site was different than the pictures. Had to buy another campsite to fit the RV since the slideout opened on the passenger side. The slide-out would have been in the street. A place to dump the garage so that you do not have to take it home with you. Dump station available but there may be a little wait time. Overall a great place to visit.

There should be a better description of the campsites on the website. Park-on-the-side-of-the-road sites are very disappointing. Mine was on an incline and there was no way to get my rig level. I had to move to another site. The firepit was full of old ashes & debris. The rigs around me ran their generators constantly so the air was full of noise & exhaust fumes.
At least the bathroom was somewhat clean. There's a solar panel on the roof but, no light inside. Bring your own soap & paper towel to wash your hands.

Very nice campground. Boat ramp was quite a ways away from the Teddybear loop.

Great campground, great site. Did 6 day hikes in the area, each one beautiful and challenging. Lots of water in the side creeks such as Salome, Parker, and Sycamore. Hardly any people, and the weather was perfect: 70 during the day 30's at night. Because of COVID, the showers were closed and the bathrooms were not getting cleaned often, which was not the best, but understandable. The restrooms were still pretty clean. Some folks ran their generators outside of the scheduled hours, but it wasn't a huge issue. We will return.
