Good but the campground did not have water when we arrived. Water was turned at the end of our stay but it was not drinkable.

The campground and our space were beautiful and well maintained - in the pine trees and plenty of space between the sites. Only complaints are the campground is situated next to a major fire road that is popular with off road bikers, so you occasionally hear motorcycles and ATV going by. Also, you cannot eat at the picnic tables, because the hornets find you within 60 seconds of sitting down to eat (we had to immediately get up and go back inside the trailer. There is also no trash cans or bear cans in the campground, so we had to burn our trash or haul in out.
