Beautiful small campground, 15 sites surrounding a meadow. Had our annual spring campout with about 12 friends at 7 different sites. I can't say enough good things about our camp host Stephanie. She was helpful, polite about enforcing rules, and made our experience that much more enjoyable.

Stayed from Thursday till Sunday. Plenty of water still in the swimming holes up stream. Camp host was awesome as always. Site 11 is nice and tucked away from the other sites. Bathrooms were clean everyday.
