The campground is beautiful; however, it is a very active bear area and we saw a bear 20min away from the campground, so we were a bit afraid yet nothing happened.

Campground was very nice. Lots of pine needles on the ground, so be careful with your fires!

Beautiful campground. Nice, level campsite. We hiked to Mist Falls which was unbelievable! Saw two bears and a few deer. Did a little fishing. Only area for improvement would be soap in the bathrooms and paper towels to dry your hands.
