Beautiful campground with decent sized sites. No shade in the outer ones, but it worked out fine for us while we were there. Very quiet. No cell phone coverage (AT&T and Verizon). Bathrooms were very clean and the hosts were really friendly. No hiking trails from the campground, but there is a creek the dogs were able to play in. We saw a moose and lots of deer.

Beautiful campground. Stayed in site 6 and had a great view of the mountainside along with trees and a large stream behind us. Quiet and dark. The camp host was friendly and happy to answer our questions.

This spot is amazing! Camp hosts were extremely nice. Set up my tent right next to the creek. Great place to view wildlife.
