Really nice campground, there are a ton of hosts on site, most were nice but one was not. If you want to move sites they are not flexible, you cannot move to an open unreserved site without eating the full cost. This was our first time here. Front loops are essentially an RV park and people run generators all day. Some of the sites are full sun. We had one of those and moved to a FCFS site in loop 5. If you are a tent camper would recommend booking back there, sites are all shaded and it's over the river so there is no noise from all the RVs. Bummer they let all the RVs in, based on other reviews these used to not be allowed and it would really be an amazing place without all the generators in the front.
