Had an easy check in and no problem getting to my campsite. It wasn’t very crowded the first night but got a little busy for the weekend. There were several children for the last weekend before schools opened but had no problems with them at all. In fact, my dogs enjoyed laying out by the picnic tables and watching them. Hopefully can make another trip before the end of season.

Everything was great. The bugs were just really bad and we weren't prepared so we left a little early. Go prepared in the summer for bugs.
