A place of amazing, otherworldly beauty. The campground was well laid out. Friendly park staff. I only had two nights there but wish it had been more.

Outstanding stay. Amazing landscape. Immaculate campground. Good neighbors. The host was superb (I think his name was Terry). He had good recommendations for various hikes. And when rain was coming in the next day, he prevented me from getting stuck in the backcountry by warning me of how slippery one set of switchbacks was on the single lane road up into the backcountry where I was going to originally camp for several days. Can’t wait to return!

This campsite has absolutely stunning views! The sites are quite close together, so you will definitely see and hear your neighbors. The bathrooms were clean and the camp host was very attentive.

I do not recommend Loop C site 56. It was not the worst camping spot I've ever had, but it was up there. The site was incredibly small, with only one spot that was even close to being flat to put a tent. It was not a tent pad, although other sites in this loop had them - not sure why this one didn't? My stakes would only go about 2 inches into the ground, as it appeared to be concrete underneath the dirt or something I kept hitting, no mater where I moved my tent. The picnic table was nice. The rest of the site was kind of like a ditch or big ruts. I would NOT want to be in a tent around that if it rained as you'd get washed away or flooded! There was barely a little spot for me to pull over. It's probably a better location for someone with a van to sleep in who doesn't need a tent spot. The other sites were bigger and many had the tent pads. I would come back to the campground, but choose a different site.

Beautiful campground with stunning views of the surrounding park. Facilities were really nice as well. This particular site had a reasonably level pull-through access with a small hill up to the tent site and table, worked well for an 18 ft popup.
