Great place. Wish we could have played music louder.

The campsite was perfect. #4 is very secluded with easy access to the hiking trail. The campground was quiet and the multiple fresh water spigots were appreciated. Would definitely stay again!

Great small campground. Very clean, friendly campground host. Excellent spot for small tent/car camping.

I loved the closeness of the creek. At the time I camped in Mid-April the creek was running high from the snow melt. It was very loud, but so soul comforting. I love the sound of creeks and rivers when I sleep. Number 9 was my camp and it was small. It was right next to the camp host on one side. Number 10 next door is almost on top of you. Gotta love the neighbors. The camp hosts dog came over for some ball playing and petting. I’m a dog person, so I loved the welcome distraction (and am missing a dogo of my own.) There is a little beach area I propped my chair up and listened and watched the creek for hours.
The 89-A traffic died down about 10 o’clock. It was also time for the noise curfew which made the woods silent! Pretty much everyone adhered to it, so it was nice.
The camp hosts are newbies. Wood bundles are small. Bathrooms were cleaned once a day. There are 4 pit toilets for the 19 sites in this campground, probably could’ve used 2 times. My fire pit wasn’t cleaned out and I asked a camp host for a shovel and he did it for me.
The swimming holes look great, but it was ferocious water and cold- so swimming’s not happening for a while. Fishing is kinda a bust as well. Maybe when the run off is done, it will be better.
Parking is an issue. Tiny spots. Only one car per site. No radios, which I actually liked….
If I get the chance to go here again, I would try for a different site further to the left when entering the campground. (No. 9 and 10 are a hard right when entering.) Overall it was enjoyable.
