I accidentally booked a site on the RV loop, but thankfully my neighbors stuck to the rules about quiet time/generator usage. All of the sites are great for tent camping with proper pads and good drainage. My site had plenty of shade and I had cell coverage as well. There was a host site, but no one was there. This was a beautiful campground and I plan to come back.

The campground was clean and well maintained and the campsites are reasonably spaced. The location is a bit exposed near the top of the mountain so wind can be an issue. The night we stayed an RV near us ran their generator during quiet hours which was annoying.

I especially enjoyed the hiking trails for walking my dogs right behind
my campsite. The campground was also peaceful.

Very nice clean campground with large sites. The campground host was friendly and informative. Great bike trails everywhere. There are water faucets but none worked. The road in is washboarded so take it slow. Both Verizon and T-Mobile worked great.
We would go back when in the Ely area.
