The campground is very clean with a lot of trees. The weather was nice and cool while Twin falls was at 90's. We stayed for one night and it was nice.

The campground is beautiful and quiet. It has a nice little creek that my kids and pups loved! The only downfall is the restrooms across from campsite 1 was in very poor condition.

Stay was great ,the website wasn't the easiest to navigate AND i should state somewhere in there that you get charged for your spot and additional charge to reserve on each spot. Which i did not see anywhere.
