Scott was a great camp host. He maintains the campground really well. He is very nice and always says hi as he passes through. Really enjoyed having him as a comp host and look forward to seeing him next year.

We stayed at campsite 14 and it was nice. There was plenty of shade and very close proximity to a spigot for water and the restrooms. The restrooms were clean and well kept. Overall we had a good time!
