The couple in the check in hut were amazing and super nice. Campground was clean, comfortable and very functional. Exactly what we needed for a quick over night stay while passing through.

I found the check-in process confusing. Just before the gatehouse, there are a bunch of orange cones sitting in the way in every lane except one. Since the previous COE campground we had just come from, was checking people in at the window, I thought that might be the case here, so I pulled on up. Apparently, this is a monumental mistake. The host was downright rude. He was intent on watching TV and didn't like the interruption of a camper checking in. It took beeping the horn a couple of times just to get his attention. He then had a real attitude. I've never been talked to like that at a COE campground. The site itself (#40) is very unlevel. It has a water view, but most sites do. It was very quiet but I won't be staying here again. The McKinney and Clark Creek campgrounds are better.

Great pull through spot on two levels. The firepit and picnic tables are down a short set of stairs, and the 20 ft trailer was easily levelled in the pull-through drive. Excellent views and plenty of shade.
