The rushing river right next to our campsite provided some great ambiance. The site was clean when we arrived and the facility was very well kept. The pit toilets were some of the cleanest I have ever found in a camping area. The water hydrants worked well and the drinking water was tasty. This is a gem of a campground.

We enjoyed our stay despite there was hardly any water in the reservoir. We think it's very sad that draining the reservoir just to make sure the Gold Medal water below is practically overflowing its banks is SAD!! Obviously, politics and keeping a select group of people happy is more important than the reservoir and the life it supports. The campground was clean, but we had off leash dogs wandering into our site and causing problems with our leashed dogs.
