Beautiful campground. Facility was very clean and well-maintained. Friendly staff. Only 45 minutes from Darby, so was able to easily drive to town for great dinner at the 406. Will definitely be back.

We love this campground! It works so well for our annual family camping trip (22 of us)... there's plenty of room to spread out so we're not right on top of each other, but a wonderful "main area" for the whole group to gather for meals and campfire time!
