We paid for a week's reservation, a couple of days before going to Dent Acres. At the time there were only two spots not reserved - one was too small for our camper, so we took the only option available. Upon arrival, after a 2 hour drive, we found out there was no water available in our campsite, the whole loop was dry. The water had been out for OVER A WEEK, yet the Recreation.gov website did not reflect this, nor stop us from making the reservation. The campground has a "Volunteer Loop" for visiting volunteers consisting of nine spaces, all of which had water. The camp hosts would not let us use any of the seven empty spaces even though no vols were expected. They also told us to temporarily use a different spot even if we had to move DAILY whenever people with reservations for that spot showed up. Pretty ridiculous to completely unpack & pack up a campsite and move daily!! We were there to fish, not constantly relocate. The men working on the water problem were great and contacted the park ranger for us and she gave us permission to use an alternate volunteer spot that was not in the Vol Loop - yes, there were 2 more vol spots. If all of that wasn't bad enough, the camp hosts were actually mad at us for "going over their heads". They should've forgotten their egos, put themselves in our shoes and tried to help us in the first place!

A very peaceful campground. We were blessed with beautiful weather, everything was green making it a wonderful week.
The road in is definitely steep and curvy. We did not have any trouble.
