great campsite; bathroom had no hand soap and the water would not stay on more that 1-2 seconds - otherwise would be 5 star

This is a beautiful COE facility that everyone connected with daily operations must be very proud of. My wife & I stayed just over a week & had a great time. The hosts make frequent rounds,are very helpful & friendly & make it clear where they reside & that they are available whenever they are needed. The Rangers are visible & also make checks. Bathrooms are well maintained. Even the crew responsible for mowing & trimming show pride in their park & campground. I have not seen better mowing in any campground/park. Hope you like wildlife. (My wife thought the little frogs got rather carried away with their single note croaking through the night.) All sorts of birds & furry creatures to watch. You can even listen to the coyotes off in the distance at night. Felt very safe. Some other parks,not so much. Great experience!

Lovely level sites, covered Picnic tables in some spots and well spaced. Camp Hosts (Roy and Debbie) were attentive but not intrusive. Clean Bathrooms. Could not have wished for a better first experience even if it did get a bit chilly.
Felt safe and well cared for and would definitely stay again.

Our experience was very good other than the 30 minutes it took to make our reservation upone arrival due to poor (T-Mobil) signal). Calling the support # was useless as the recorded message just refers you to the Recreation.gov site.

- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.

- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
