The campsite we stayed in wasn’t very good for tent camping (which we did). There wasn’t level ground and there were stinging nettle plants all over. It would be nice if each campsite had a couple cleared and level areas for tents.
Other than that, it is a nice campground. Quiet. Paved roads make it nice to keep the dust down.

Campground is good. The fire pit areas could use leveling. But it’s a good getaway

The reservation tag was posted correctly on post, the campground host was amiable yet not too chatty/annoying, bathroom was kept cleaned and stocked.
only bad thing...too many generators!

This campground is one of our favorites. We've never had any problems with the camp hosts even with our large group. We follow the rules, respect other campers and our stay is ALWAYS AMAZING!!!
