We have camped here several times, typically coming up to Monument every other year. We always have a wonderful time, the bathrooms are always clean, the campsites are always clean, it's quiet and peaceful. The Campground Host was a gem of a gentleman, so kind and courteous.

This was a beautiful spot to visit Lumberman’s Monument from and hike local trails. I’ve never been to a rustic campground with such clean outhouses! Just wish people in rustic campgrounds didn’t run generators.
