Very close to town and pretty much on the Colorado trail. Sites seemed large where you really could not see may of the neighbors

The campground is wonderful and the road is now paved, allowing us to easily navigate with a 37’ fifth wheel. Each loop has trash dumpsters and the absolute cleanest vault toilets we’ve ever experienced!

Great campground, sites are far apart and very private.
Multiple walking/biking trails that start on the campground.

Traveling with a 40'MH+ Toad which made things slower but perfectly fine for big rigs.
