This group site is ideal for so many activities: hiking, rock climbing, rock sliding/swimming, biking… all with a big open space for field games, camping, and great recreation with friends. Privacy for singing loudly around the campfire and amazing nearby access to so much fun. We weren’t clear whether the water was potable or not (a sign would be nice) and the pit toilets were not too bad. Another terrific birthday weekend for our youngest and her many friends’ ’families. The best!!

This is an ideal group site. Mini sliding rock, swimming hole, rock wall for climbing, access to trails, waterfall hike, field for games and camping, good spots for hammocks, community meals, and serenity!! What a magical place to be with friends outside. Total dream!! The lower site has easy access now with the culvert over the old ford site. All the thumbs up!!
