We had one little incident. A tree fell on our site during all of the rain. However, I called and a ranger was there within 30 minutes. The tree was taken care the same afternoon. Thank you.

Well kept, clean, friendly staff. The only problem was that apparently somewhere in the woods behind us was a septic pump or something for the bathrooms? When the breeze was a certain direction the odor was a bit uncomfortable. Learned a bit about those sites for next time.
