Very nice campground but some of the sites are really close together. Also, the dump station backs up under a much less than moderate flow. Use caution and drain your rig very slowly.

Great camp but maintenance crew needs a little common sense. 2 times now we've been here and wake up to lawn mowers and leaf blowers at 7:30am. This is ridiculous. They can perform this work any time of the day without having to wake everyone up at 7:30. Most anyone camping is out and about after 10am. A little respect for the campers would be nice.

This is one of our favorites. The RV spots are close enough to the river/creek to hear the water running. For this trip, the park was empty. There was only one other spot reserved. Most of the sites are spacious. For spots 25 and up, it’s a lot of concrete and less shade. Bathrooms are clean and well maintained.
