Overall the camping was good. I think the campsites are a little too close together but otherwise we had a nice experience.

The campground was wonderful and very peaceful. I would recommend making sure to bring a shovel, though. The fire ring was almost full to the top with trash, such as aluminum pans, aluminum foil balled up, unburned paper plates, and a wide variety of bones (what seemed to be mostly chicken and rib). Our entire trip, Saturday through Tuesday, we only saw 1 ranger, and there didn't seem to be any camp hosts like there used to be.

Arrived Friday around 2pm to set up camp. Bathrooms were awful and no paper. Someone finally showed up Saturday afternoon to clean & restock. Knowing it was spring break, host should have stayed on top of the toilet paper.
