Great campsite. Very good pads for trailers. Super clean restrooms and laundry facility. Only negative thing difficult drive getting there. Roads narrow, steep. Difficulty pulling a big camper. Camp hosts very helpful and friendly.

If your looking for a private area don't stay here. All open, people with fires just smoking up the area, lights on campers. It was like being at a KOA.
