Site 4 has great views but not level side to side for our 35’ 5th wheel (can only park parallel to the road) but we managed. It also sits close to the road but otherwise a great stay for a few days.

The scenery was beautiful but the campers there the weekend we visited were too noisy riding their dirt bikes, moving their vehicles around and late night partying. The camp sites were close to one another, offering little privacy. The only great thing was the camp hosts, John and Kim. They were awesome in every way. I would not want to camp there again unless it's off season as the location is very nice.
