The campground was great, though a touch treacherous to get to. The host Sunny was fantastic and very helpful and accommodating. Somehow despite the motor bike and ATV parking and trail access the grounds stayed nice and quiet. Look out for all the squirrels though, they are too curious.

Our camp host Sunny was very nice and helpful. There was a problem with the water so it wasn't drinkable - not a huge inconvenience, but a little nonetheless. End of summer is sooo dry though. I'll try going there in the spring next, although with this drought everything may still be parched and yellow.

The host, Sunny was friendly and helpful. My campsite was very clean. The restroom (the continuous presence of "smears" in the toilet in particular) was pretty gross, but I guess that is to be expected at a campground. I had really noisy camping neighbors and the coming and going of ORVs at all hours prevented a good night's sleep at night and peaceful conditions during the day, so hiking was my best option. The trails were very good.
