Our visit was quiet as we wished. Perhaps during the main season there are children but in this visit there weren't. The camp was quiet, the rangers and hosts were visable and amicable but not intrusive.
The sites were cleaned and maintained. The bathroom is dated and the floor usually wet, which was a put off, but clean. The COVID signs need to go.
A good stay this time, in the past and I'll likely visit again.

Another COE campground we stayed at on our journey to Acadia NP. Having hot shower is definitely a bonus in addition to E/W hookup at the site.

Clean, quiet campground with everything you need. Staff is on hand and keep the grounds well groomed and make sure all is in order and the quiet hours are respected. Definitely a welcome relief after some campgrounds we’ve been to in the past with loud drunken partying at all hours.
