The camping was almost "lost" in the forest, we did have to look for the entrance.
There wasn't other people there, even the person in charge so we stayed in our place and the next day a ranger come to the camping (we had almost gone) and register our stay.
Toilets (letrines) were clean. Parcel was big with a bear locker and a camping table.
There was a fountain there too.

Pay attention to what site you choose here. There are tent only and there are tent/pop up sites. The pop up sites are fine for a camping van, but the tent only sites really can only handle a passenger sized car. The water comes from a hand pump and after seeing the color we chose to not drink it, but rather fill our bottles at the next campground instead. We liked our stop here. Do your best to make sure your vehicle will fit like you think it will.

Really nice site.
Tons of road construction directly behind our site at 4:00am. Extremely noisy

Nice campsite. Tent locations were a bit off level but not to bad. There was a lot of road and traffic noise but that is hard to control.

Policies & Rules

Arrival & departure

  • Contact customer service at the provided phone number or email for assistance.

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • 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.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • 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.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.

  • Firewood must be purchased locally and burned on-site to protect forests.
