The only concern was how despite the restrictions on firewood, some camp sites were not following the rules .

This is a yearly family outing. This year, 2020, was too hot and water too low but still had a lot of fun

Great spot with a lot tree shed! Close to river but little awkward need to walk through people camp to get to it.
The yurt was amazing so clean nice well maintained. Brought battery to charge fan and mist machine so not too hot Haha.
Clean Campground mostly. Bathrooms are below average 4 sure. Smell and quality. No electricity.
One big group people got crazy and drunk loud all night and I'm a party guy myself but they were just rude and people asked them to keep it down but they got aggressive and drunken fight. I felt it took long for the sheriff's to finally come, thought camp host could have stepped in quicker nip it in the butt. Anyways outside that the campsite is lagit. Totally would do again. If upgraded bathrooms 4sure would.
Ps I'm a backpacker to so that's saying a lot...

We have visited Headquarters over the last few years. We were very disappointed with the condition of our site. Previous campers were very careless with trash and there was stuff everywhere. I know most camp hosts are diligent on maintenance in the area but this was not so this time. It was a shame.
