What a beautiful campground! Although small in terms of the number of sites, the sites are spacious and well placed, shady and well maintained. The restrooms are vault toilets, but clean and nice. The hosts John and Tami were extremely friendly and fun to visit with. The proximity to an extensive network of established ATV trails and the Downata water park in Downey made this a nice venue with lots of options for adventures outside of the campground. Definitely two thumbs up for us! Most definitely we would come again.
