The only drawback to this set of campsites is the lack of full hookups.

Site 25 was really nice, but challenging to get into with a 30' trailer. I don't think a larger trailer would have been able to get between the trees to get in.

Campsite is on a hill, including the fire pit, which had uneaven ground all around it making it very difficult to sit around comfortably with more than a few people. The picnic table was also on said hill, making it very difficult at times to keep things on it. Bathrooms are a pretty good walk a ways across a parking lot. Probably don't plan to camp here again.

Site had unpacked gravel and slanted driveway. Could not get level and had to park trailer at an angle in the site to get level. Otherwise it was a good stay...other sites would have worked better for me.
