The site was roomy. The table was in good shape. Lantern poles were helpful. the other campers were quiet and respectful. The availability of restrooms, water pump and food lockers was a good thing.

I did not like the grill on the fire ring. It did not sit level and was not stable at all. That was the only negative.

Hunters coming in before 6:00 am and waking everyone up being loud,cocking their rifles and scaring the women and kids. Not enough or early enough patrolling.
