Nice campground, clean spots. Not the best for big campers due to trees on road from entrance to exit not trimmed and can scratch or damage on top of camper.

This is a beautiful area to camp. There were just a couple of negatives that prevented our stay from being awesome. Firstly, there didn't seem to be anyone present that we could ask questions to or that could quiet a party that came into the campground at 11:30 p.m., dogs barking and running around, doors banging, and people talking and laughing until 3:30 a.m. Secondly, we have stayed in this campground before and there were garbage dumpsters for us to take our garbage to. This year it was "bring it in carry it out" policy- yet we were charged the same fee... and along those lines, it feels as if the area is being badly neglected, as there is a lot of overgrowth in the creeks around and on the various hikes. This is sad to see, as it is so beautiful here. I hope things will improve over the next year.

It was very nice to find a very clean bathroom and enough toilet paper. We missed the trash container, but understand. We had a blast as usual. Thanks so much for all your work!

We arrived on Friday 09/04 for 3 nights over Labor Day weekend 2020. We are small family with young children. Friday night, there was a HUGE party at site #6 that included tenants of 4 other sites. Yes, 15-20 people getting drunk, yelling, and blasting dance music until midnight. Asking for the music to be turned down after 10:30pm resulted in threats, f-bombs and music being turned up louder. Because of our kids we decided to let it go, not wanting to start a fight. The following night, the party of all the same people were at Site #1, other tennants closer to that site were literally BEGGING for the party to end at 1:30am. Same loud music, same abnoxious behavior including drinking and driving (they all have side by sides). We saw a Park Ranger Sunday morning and let them know what was happening, she warned the tenants in #6 as far as I could tell. Sunday night, the rager was at site #8 and included all of the same people plus multiple vehicles visiting from off site, party was complete with a welcoming committee letting everyone who entered know where the party was. That final night, again, party went until 2am. The kicker here is that we found a container of POT in the main campsite road a few feet away from my 5 year old who could have easily picked it up. Site Tenants of #1, #3, #6, #8, and #9 were all friends and totally took over the campsite with 3 raging parties in a row complete with drugs and music absolutely blasting until the whee hours of the morining. They had zero regard for families trying to enjoy some peace and quiet. The park rangers had zero authority and the Sheriff's never made their rounds like I was advised that they would. This is NOT a family friendly site, as we overheard other tennants sound surprised that anyone other than their friends were staying there this time - these are clearly regulars of the campsite and know what they can get away with. I do not recommend this campsite for families or anyone w/ kids.

The campground itself is fine, but it's mainly a tent campground. The site was listed as 35ft max and we were crammed in even with unhooking the truck and parking sideways in front of the rig. Also the site(6) is backwards with the camp site on the left when rvs open on the right so we had to walk around to get to the fire ring and picnic table.

I didn't realize the campground was in a burn area. But it was quiet and cool. We had to reserve two separate sites to stay two nights because the other ones were booked. But no one ever showed up to the 2 sites we were in that were booked on opposite days. Is this an issue?

Me the hubby and four kids went camping for just the night and it was very nice to be able to get out of the area for a bit and not have to worry about cell phone service anything like that. Overall I would recommend it was quiet it was relaxing and a nice little stroll to the creek.
