The campground is very nice. The sites are far apart. Tall trees provide decent shade. The men's bathroom was an absolute horror.

Great Park. Easy and cheerful check in. Clean and quiet with spacious sites. Will be back. Only issue was getting our NPS discount online. On check in was told that we could not change our price even though we tried online and could not get it excepted online. Recommend calling for reservations.
