Great campsites and very convenient to the Visitor Center. As we are tent campers, we were happy to see a mix of various camping arrangements, rather than predominantly RVs at the site. One suggestion is to check the coin-operated showers, as several of them were not working during our stay.

The location was incredibly convenient, and these were the nicest campground restrooms we've ever seen.

The price is good for what's offered - there are plenty of bathhouses and they are all very clean. The campsites are very big and there is plenty of privacy. The coin showers are fine and a fair price, extra star for the available laundry machines and post office!

I’m writing this review specifically about this campsite. If the map doesn’t make it clear, this spot is right beside a bathroom. Some people like this, others don’t. It was fine, I never noticed people coming or going. The site as a very slight grade to it but is mostly flat. I looked at other sites while I was there and I think it’d be the same elsewhere. This site will work well if you want to put up a hammock. Any of the sites you choose in this loop will be easy to walk to the general store, assuming you don’t have mobility issues to account for. There is a potable water hook up by the general store as well. There might be a hook up closer to the site, but if there was, I overlooked it. Walking to the cave is also very doable from here. It’s close to trails as well and overall just a really nice place to camp. As for the facilities, the bathrooms by the campsite are clean and well-kept. The showers, which are over by the general store are very, very old and coin operated. The water pressure and temperature were fine though. I didn’t use the laundry facility but the prices are very reasonable and the units appear to be average.
