Great campsite! Tent site gravel and soft. Covered concrete table. Shower was okay and free. Luke warm and shower head bad. I'll be back! Great value!

The moment I arrived at this campground, I felt a sense of relief. It was a very wonderful experience to say the least. I felt safe here. The bathrooms and showers were very clean. The reserved space was very spacious and free from excessive debris, which allowed me to set up my tent very comfortably. The lean to structure provided ample space to set up my cooking gear, which I couldn’t use because I wasn’t successful lighting up my stove or the grill. Needless to say I would return to this lovely campground in a heartbeat.

Very nice sites, quiet and private. Bathrooms are what you would expect for a state rec area, adequate and relatively clean. Very few people in our section when we were there. We stayed in Ringtail Cat.

Bathrooms were in poor condition, toilet stall door broken. One shower had a curtain but did not have a wall mounted shower head, the other shower had no curtain.

Policies & Rules
Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
