We did not have one of the "good" sites. Ours was such that our 'camp' side faced the bank instead of the view. In making the reservation, I didn't understand how the sites were laid out. Now I do! The driving instructions from Orofino should be changed to offer an alternative route on Wells Bench road. The hill coming up out of Orofino is very steep, too steep for some RVs I think. Also, there is only one trash dumpster, which is way down at the boat launch. Please install another one at the exit by the booth! The hosts that were camped up by the entry booth were very nice and very helpful. Kudos to them. Everything was very clean and tidy.

We used to love going to Dent Acres, but last summer the outside lights on the bathrooms we changed. Now there are blinding floodlights that shine intensely into the campgrounds, even around the fire pits. It really ruins the night time, and is vey annoying. I think they should be removed, or maybe a hood or shield could be fashioned to direct the light down to the ground instead of out into all the campsites.
