I was able to observe the wildlife; a raccoon and a skunk ate my food, they even opened a sealed plastic storage bin.

I enjoyed the park and would likely come back.
I had one disappointment… And that was that the Ranger station was not open on Tuesday and Wednesday. I really plan to look at some of the books and other items you sell and especially wanted to get the national park stamp which I have a hobby of doing. It was disappointing to me that nowhere in any Internet information or even any signage at the campground did it say that they were closed Tuesday and Wednesday? I waited around quite a while, thinking that somebody didn’t just show up for work. Then I left for a while and did some other things and came back and it was still locked up. Then an employee on a golf cart was there and I talked to her and she told me that the policy was Tuesday and Wednesday close. So I think you should do a lot better job on notifying guests about that thank you.

Shaded, lots of interactions with wild life so make sure your stuff is locked up! 😜 we will be definitely picking this spot again!!
