Camp host was on it! Love a clean, respected campground. This is a fun spot to stay, with a short hike to the top of the nearby ski resort and other easy trails straight out from your picnic table. Make sure to bring a sun shade or tarp, because there isn’t much sun cover. Can’t knock any stars for that when it’s just so lovely in every other way.

Ashley and her husband are awesome hosts. They ensure that the camp is clean and everything is working well. It was the best campground I have ever been to. Cleanest bathrooms, very tidy campsites and each site is very well equipped with grill, table, bear box and picnic table. There is also and well groo
Ed area for tents. Overall great experience.
