I just wish the 3 camp hosts would not light up their camp sites like NYC. All night...

We had a great location- wild horses walked right up into our campsite. Driving around we saw wild turkey, elk, and deer. The campground was clean, restrooms were clean and the staff is VERY friendly and helpful. We are already planning our next trip back!

What a great campground. It was a well kept, peaceful experience with all the amenities. Hosts were so friendly. It’s close to many fishing spots and only 40 minutes from town. We’ll be back.

I really want to give 5 stars because the camp is clean and beautiful; but the spot I had was very difficult with parking my trailer. With how close the hook up was to the fire pit we couldn’t have a fire going. And if we wanted a fire we would have been parked in the road.
