This was such a perfect campground with the cleanest toilets I have ever seen, a super accommodating host with plentiful firewood and lake, hike, area ideas! Our spot was #11 right next to the trail that you could find the creek from, it was perfect, well spaced, private, open, flat and very clean, fire pit included.

The campground and restroom facilities were very good; the hosts were awesome.
We saw a moose! Wow! How cool is that!
The only bad thing is the road that leads to the campground; it is pretty rocky and bumpy.

The rest rooms were clean, and we weren't too far away from the lake. The site host family was very kind. A fire was prepped for us when we arrived!
