Wonderful little campground. No showers, but the facilities are very clean and the sites are nice. The walk-in sites are the best.

I really enjoyed this campground. The sites were spread out, so it felt private, and the hosts were very friendly. The site was clean when I arrived, water and restrooms were nearby and ice cream/firewood were available.

This site is by far the best in the camp ground. Right next to running water and a couple trail heads. Bathrooms were clean and the plants offered decent privacy from neighbors. The best part is the view of deer mountain. Completely visible. Will stay here again!

This was by far our favorite camping trip of the season! Our site backed to the side of the mountain so there was no wind at all. The site was also huge so we could really spread out and enjoy the scenery. The twins did the junior ranger book and earned their junior ranger badges. We saw tons of wild life in the park including deer, turkey, elk, and moose. Can’t wait to come back!
