We took our motorhome for two nights (we go there once or twice a year) and had to move for the second night. The host was very obliging when we asked to change sites to a prettier one which was open. The sites were as clean as they could be--even the pine cones were swept away! Friendly neighbors. We purposely left before the busy holiday weekend.

First time at DOWDY, but we will be back every year! Clean and beautiful are among the many adjectives that I could use to describe DOWDY!

This campground is beautiful and well maintained. It's easy to see why spots are so hard to come by.
