Campground site very large with partial grass. The area where you park your rv was very uneven and difficult to level the RV.
There is a water shortage so they are using chemical toilets right now.

No potable water and portapoties - what happened?! This campground used to be incredible, but now... serious lack of maintenance and not having the basics was a disappointment.

While the location was amazing, the staff at this site were not friendly. Additionally the bathroom sinks were closed off so there was no sink to wash your hands with (and only half the bathroom were accessible). On our second day, they removed the spicket handle so we couldn't get water there and on our third day they installed porta-potties at 8AM in the morning right next to our campsite. We immediately packed up and left. What a disappointing campground experience.
