Site looked great, especially towards the end of peak season. The water pump was not working when we stayed in April and it was not working on this trip either (September) -- so hopefully this can be fixed. I would plan for an outage just in case.

Upper Cove Creek Campground is set at a good elevation and is very peaceful. The stream crossing to access the site should not be attempted by small or low cars.
