This campsite is beautifully tucked in the rocks. Bathroom was clean and as one would expect for campsite. Garbage onsite. Small walk to where we set up tent - up against rocks.
Neighboring campsite was close! Would not be as enjoyable had it been booked. But because it was empty it was a perfect spot for us.
Noisy neighbors next campground over. Not in the park therefore a little inconvenient location wise. No cell service.

Beautiful campground. Gorgeous rock formations everywhere you turn. I would rate site 59 4/5.
Pros:
-Close enough to a very clean bathroom
-You only have one neighbor to your right and to the left and back are huge boulders which offers some privacy
Cons:
-too close to your neighbor on the right
-your tent site is on a grade that can fit a 2 person tent which is what we used
-there was a possible bigger more level tent site closer to our neighbors but wasn’t clear if if it belonged to their campsite or ours. If we would have used it, our neighbors would have been 4 feet away from our neighbor’s tent.
Would I come here again? Yes to the campground but will seek another tent site in the future.

Yes North and not in the park but easy to get to. No difference in the rest of the park’s experience.
