The campground was well laid out and clean. Close to Golden Gate Canyon State Park; with the trails for hiking and biking, and fishing ponds. Camp host was very nice and attentive.

Campsite was clean, roads/drainage have been addressed from last year and the camp hosts were attentive and present. They were even marking no shows for availability, which is a welcome site in our campgrounds since reservations can be tough to come by and too many go unused because of no-shows.

I really enjoyed this campground. Site 15 had amazing views but it's a tough one to back in to with a 21 ft trailer and full size truck. I would definitely book here again!

Neglected campground managed by Leisure Adventure. Campground was nearly empty but all but about 4 spots had reserved signs out. What’s with that? Many spots with 2 parking spots are actually 2 sites-crowded. We were in a camper van and had a tent camper parked 10 inches from us. Unnecessary given how empty the place was. Road was rutted with deep holes made worse by rain. Would not recommend.

Beautiful spot. Sites 20-22 are very close to each other. Some sites are very close to the highway. Campground is quite well kept including bathrooms.
