Quiet place to camp with the creek right behind the site. Lots of beaver activity!

The good: campground is quiet and peaceful with a flowing stream and abundant wildlife.
The bad: the road leading up to the campground is TERRIBLE; washboard the entire way. The site we stayed was insanely unlevel; even using three layers of leveling blocks on one side didn’t completely level out the trailer. There is no water here, make sure to bring your own. There is no trash service here, be prepared to pack it out.
I would not stay here again solely because of the road.

As indicated in the description of the campground, not all sites are level, this includes site 9. Made our 5 night reservation about 5 months in advance. Good communication from recreation.gov to remind us of our reservation. Stayed at the campground our first night, it was noisy as people were driving in after dark looking for open sites (none available). We found a dispersed camping option for our next two nights. Got a text from the camp host to ask if we were going to return to the campground and answered that we were going to return for our final two nights. However, when we returned to site 9 that afternoon, our reservation was removed from the site stake and someone was in our site. We shared the site which was fine and our reservation was eventually put back on the stake. Bathrooms were clean. Seems like the campground could be better managed.
