wonderful campground! Not a lot of sites, small and intimate, good spacing between your neighbors. This place feels old school, brings back good memories. The camp host Jerry was a very helpful, knowledgeable, and entertaining gentleman. Will definitely return especially since its a short drive from home

Great camping spot. The kids loved climbing the giant red rocks. Spent the day at nearby Manitou Lake on our paddle boards (2 minute drive!). Campsites are well spaced out, plenty of trees for shade at sites 7 & 8. Only bummer is no fires allowed due to burn ban.
