This place is amazing! The camp host is great, its a quiet campground and you can't beat the weather or hiking. There is no internet access with AT&T or GPS for awhile so plan out your hikes or whatever you want to do and download maps.

Beautiful place. Very nice people, especially Joseph. My campsite (#20) was very near the road so I heard every vehicle going by at night and early in the morning.

Beautiful campground with a lovely trail to and around a small lake that was ideal for swimming and picnicking. The campground host was very helpful and friendly and worked hard to keep the bathrooms and showers clean.
