Beautiful area, quiet (except for an occational 4 wheeler on the nearby trail), peaceful. Other campers were quiet and respectable. I will be back next summer!

Great camp host, they were helpful and informative. Campsite was clean and well taken care of, especially areas of overgrown grass and weeds. Only set back was there were lots of flies to content with, the host even had hung several fly catchers throughout camp sites.

We had 3 campsites. I was so happy that they were close together so we could share meals, stories, etc. While we didn't use the public restrooms, my daughter's family did. She exclaimed that they were the cleanest, most fresh smelling "Johns" that she had ever used!! Thank you so much for that! The camp host and his wife were amazing!! They came around and checked on us to see if we needed anything. The campground was very clean and tidy. We would highly recommend this campsite... and the Camp Host!! We had a wonderful experience!! Thank you!!!

Beautiful, small, remote campground. A great place for getting away from everything because unless you are in to ATV riding, there’s nothing! Except for birders. For some reason the birding was fantastic. No dump station anywhere nearby.
