Campground upkeep was very good. Beautiful Campground. But unlike almost every other state campground it needs a dump station. Anybody wishing to stay longer than what their camper can hold has no way to dump and nowhere close to go within 25 MI

Nice, well kept campground. Of coarse some OHV traffic, but that is to be expected. Host were very friendly and working hard to keep things clean. A few kind of interesting looking "campers", who appeared to be living in their cars vs. really camping. They seemed harmless enough though. Only real complaint is the lack of enforcement of dogs being leashed. We travel with two well behaved dogs that are always leashed or tethered and while walking them we were attacked by an unrestrained GSD. There were also numerous other dogs that were not restrained.

Toilets were clogged several times. Supposedly they are going to rebuild bath house next year. Hopefully this resolves issue. Camp hosts were INCREADABLE!!!! They quickly took care of any issues and were very friendly. The best camp hosts ever. Enjoyed the spacious separation of the camp sites. Will return.

Many many trails have downfall, and much has been ther a year or more. They are spending money and labor to block "shortcut go arounds" etc., but NOT for existing trail maintenance. Campgrounds are great as are the hosts!!!
