Thank you Army Corps of Engineers for running the most beautiful campgrounds in America. Sparrowfoot is no exception. Fellow campers: please, please, please do your best to respect ACoE campground facilities. Picking up after yourself is camping 101.

Hookups worked. Site was clean and pretty level. Dump station was clean and in good shape. Really nice that it's a two-sided dump station.
Campground was empty except for a broken down trailer that clearly hadn't moved in a while, and a shirtless guy sitting in an old van next to the playground, watching my toddler play. Because of that, I definitely won't be back again. Something creepy going on here.

Very unlevel gravel site. The power pedistal is way back and makes it difficult to get back far enough because of the trees.

I had to leave 9 days early due to 2 neighbors arguing. So that was a lot of money I lost
