Great campground with a friendly camp host and big spots for campers and tents and clean vault toilets and great shower rooms and just great off grid style quiet getaway

We had a bad storm come through while we were there. The Camp Hosts and the Park Rangers were excellent in keeping us informed on weather conditions and what safety measures/shelters we could take.

Do not camp near the camphost. Annoying led bright green lights on the ground all night.
Other than that, this campground would get 5+ stars. Awesome big and relaxing sites.
