Had a great time. Camp grounds were clean and well maintained. When there was a fallen tree across the road the rangers were quick to respond and cleaned off the road. The shower/bathrooms were well taken care of and were stocked. It was nice to see the wildlife (deer) so close to camp. The bike trail was also well maintained. Look forward to coming back again.
