This is probably our favorite COE park that we have camped in. Very quiet, great cleaning crew so bathrooms are well maintained, and wonderful views. The trout fishing is what normally brings in the visitors, but the scenery is nice even if you don't fish.

Quite and peaceful Park. We were at B16. It was close to the River and very shady. Park attendants were very nice. Clean bathrooms.

Tell folks not to bring their barking dogs if they are just going to tie them up outside for others to hear them bark. And have plenty of play space for all kids so they would stay out of the roads, very dangerous.
