Quiet campground. The water was covered while we were there. Unsure as to why, but be sure to bring water.

Very clean campsite. Not too many people, big sites. Beautiful rock formations, grandkids enjoyed climbing and play games around them. Manitou Lake park nearby, we walked there.

We chose this site because of access to water. The water was NOT on. Very problematic! We will choose another camp ground next time!

Road grading and site grading maintenance is poor. It can be quite difficult to get a car into many sites, let alone an RV. They need to work on drainage and install some culverts.
Also, we got dusted by local residents driving down the neighboring county road which was very close.

Went camping with my grandchildren and we had a great time. Bathrooms and campsite were clean and maintain.
It is a great place for families.
