Stayed in loop B. Good amount of shade, but several trees have died and need removed. Lot was level. Utilities provided all work as expected.

Wonderful place to camp, just extremely hard to get a reservation. People book 6 months out and book for 1 to 2 weeks and those of us that are not retired, struggle to get a spot to camp. The campground host were not on sight the weekend when we stayed, so it was disappointing that no one was available. We booked the pavillion and it was not even marked as reserved, we had to do that ourselves.

How about a campground that is level and all grass no mud holes no railroad ties. This place has very clean restrooms.
Enjoy

This was the best COE campground we have stayed in. The sites are huge and so level we didn't unhook from truck. The sites we saw were more than enough room for the longest RVS. We were there for only one night, but I would definitely stay again.
