Don’t stay in C5. It’s right across from where the park vehicles park and you will hear them coming and going early in the morning, and people walking over to stand right in front of your campsite to make phone calls.

The site we had was super secluded and we love it. It was quiet and the camp host was very friendly and helpful.

Van Hook Glade was a nice campground with a good host. The bathrooms and showers were clean, even though when I took a shower, there were several long legged spiders in there.
