Unfortunately we did not get to spend the night but we did enjoy a full day at our campsite in Methodist. The Pheasant Ridge trail is so nice with smooth concrete the whole way. We had a nice bike ride into Alma and visited several stores while there. Looking forward to spending more time at this campsite.
