Overall it was a great trip. Been to this campground many times. I do have a couple issues this time around. There aren’t supposed to campers/trailers allowed and rules clearly state a tent must be onsite yet there was a Winnebago and had the generator running so the noise was very annoying. Our group had 3 sites reserved and this caused us to have 2 extra cars. We had to park them up top which we expected and had no issue with until the hosts allowed another camper and car to park in the bathroom area which isn’t even a campsite.
Aside from this we love this place and it is our favorite place to camp so it’s unfortunate we had to deal with the noise and car issue. I would still recommend this place to others and we will be back for sure. Hopefully next time the hosts follow the rules as we are expected to.

This campground is beautiful! The sites are small, and they truly fit only one car, but they’re flat and tidy. There are 4 vault toilets for the 18 sites, and they were cleaned and stocked daily. The camp steward was very sweet and helpful. The highlight of our experience was the location - very near the creek and within walking distance to a gorgeous swimming/fishing hole. Heaven on earth, in my opinion!

Great site (minus the rocky ground if you have cheap tent stakes), good basic accommodations, fantastic on-site staff.

The site was nice, off in the corner away from the others; however, it wasn't level which made sleeping a bit uncomfortable. Everyone was nice/respectful, but of course their were a few rowdy folks after the quiet hours started and some of the vehicles going by on the highway had really loud music/bass. I wasn't happy with a few of the people smoking cigarettes on the campground and at the swimming hole, but it's not my place to dictate the choices that others make. The facilities were clean and, overall, it was a great experience with absolutely beautiful scenery. The night surprised me by getting nice and cool. Our two dogs had a wonderful time as well!
