The first night is first come first served, unless the sites are tagged reserved. When you make the reservation they charge an $8 reservation fee, (which is bogus).
The camp hosts were pleasant, even when informing us that the generator had to be turned off at 10PM, even though my boyfriend needed it to run his CPAP. There’s no electric, a few drinking water spigots scattered throughout, turned off in the winter, and two outhouses. No RVDump on site.
The park was beautiful, spaces far enough apart, and guests so few that we all had lots of privacy. Fall definitely is the time to come. The upper loop, where we were is closed for the fall, winter though. All spaces are back in, and most of them in the lower loop would be difficult if you’re longer than 24 feet. Our 5th wheel is 32 feet. But they are wide enough you can unhook your vehicle and park beside your RV.
There was a small herd of mule deer that wandered through every morning and evening, so that was cool to experience.
There’s a nice beach/picnic/swim area, no pets allowed. Lots of paths to walk as well. The fall colors were amazing.
We just wanted to get away from it all, and with spotty cell service we did.
