Very nice campground. Sites are large with some privacy between them. Restrooms and showers are exceptionally clean. For me personally was that there was no swimming in the area or much hiking.

Clean, beautiful trees. Activities?? Not too much. Wish they had a swimming area of some sort. Really not anywhere to even safely take a walk because the road nearby is so busy.

Love how small and quiet the campground was. Hosts were welcoming and knowledgeable. Restrooms were close and clean. The site 20 was very spacious. Site 21 was a pull through and close to the restrooms. Not as much green space as the other sites.

Worst place for phone service and satellite. Spot was too close to dump station too many flies and ants. Camp site does not have water hook up. Called customer service 4+ times received different information each time.
