We enjoy staying at Army core campgrounds. It has been sometime since we stayed at Opossum Creek. The bathrooms and shower house are clean. Some of the roads are in need of repair. Campground volunteers and Host are friendly. At Opossum Creek the check in gate is not staffed. While I appreciate the quick attention from the campground host upon our arrival, I would recommend they wait until we have fully backed into our site and set up before approaching us and causing a distraction.
