Very nice camping site #217, but there is very little shade. The loop itself is very quiet and very relaxing after the sun gets far enough to the west and the camper gives you some shade but we still had a good time.

Great site, recently repaved, full hookup, decent shade, nice and level, large enough for parking 3 vehicles and a 35ft camper. Fire pit is sunk into the paved area, no feet in the weeds/dirt around the fire!!

We enjoyed our week of camping even in the 95-99 degree weather. The campground was quiet and enjoyed the bike trails. It was nice to see rules being followed, such as no parking on grass and no dogs running loose.
