It was our first trip with our new travel trailer and its started off our camping adventures off with a bang. Private site, clean bath house and a beautiful setting. Close to mines to enjoy some crystal digging and hot springs for shopping and lots of other things to do. Mosaic crafts business in Hot springs was lots of fun. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back for some more adventures.

We stayed at 41C. Site was absolutely breathtaking. We could even keep an eye on our 9 & 10 year old boys who spent most of the time at the beach/playground area. Can’t wait to go back!

It would be nice if the trash containers were a little closer than at the entrance of the loop. Otherwise it was beautiful.

The park was adequate but that's all. We were late in the season so they may have been wearing down.
We did go crystal mining in the area which was great fun and found lots of nice clear crystals!
