Beautiful campground, most of the campsites are well spaced, many are flat. The staff at the entry building were very vague about any open spots and how to reserve them. Several other campers had the same concern about the staff giving unclear answers about open camp sites. We saw bear and deer in the campground.

This is a great family camp site. We feel it is far enough away from the main attractions to truly enjoy the nature and beauty of the mountains but a close enough drive to the store if needed. The hikes in the local area are breathtaking. Only downside is not being able to have dogs on the trails.

Love that place, we always book the same spots and our experience there is always the best, last time we had bear visitors every day we were there. It was awesome! Cant wait to go back.

The campsite was trashed. There was tons of broken bottles all around the camp fire. It hadn't been cleaned out in who knows how long either. It looked like the camp ground is never taken care of. Which is a bummer.
