Lovely quiet site when we were there during the week in March. Wildlife and some nice walks. Limited internet in the campsite itself but that was ok for us.
We had some problems finding it but it was more our fault just relying on GPS.

Beautiful location. Paved sites are level. Lots of shade trees. Fire pits, lantern hooks and picnic tables at each site. There was a camp host, but the camp sights contained a lot of limbs and debris. It didn't look as though it had been cleaned in a long time. Still one of my favorite locations.
