This is our main layover for our trip south. We love how quiet and peaceful it is. The staff are always friendly. The facilities are always clean and up-to-date. We will be stopping here on our way up north come spring time.

Sites were a bit close together, and information was hard to find once we arrived. As there was no host, a posted campground map would have been helpful (no cell service to pull one up online). Some signage indicating that the campground was unhosted would have also been helpful.

There is no campground host and we only saw a ranger occasionally when they drove through. Water pressure was a little low but useable.

The power went out on two separate occasions, and it was out for 2 days. I had booked an additional two weeks, and a ranger showed up the day I was to move to a different site to say I couldn’t do so. This happened on a Sunday. Y’all had 2 weeks to advise me of this, and didn’t until I was to leave to a different numbered site in 2 hours. This left me with nowhere to go with my two children. We will not be returning.

Nice park. Best part was they have full hookups, so it was nice to dump black water right at the site not at a dump station.
