We planned last minute to go out and camp we went and set up we accidentally set up our stay for a month ahead and our lovely camp host came over and helped us get our stay corrected. We enjoyed our stay. We like to go to the gun range and target shooting not far from the campground.

Large, level spots with good separation between most sites. Good water views. Bathhouse needs updating. AT&T connectivity fair to poor.

The Ranger and hosts were very friendly and helpful. Site 8 was level and had a good view. The bathroom and shower were pretty clean. The trails and river were nice, although the river was way up. There was lots of frog noise at night. I can imagine there are tons of mosquitoes at the right time of the year.
