This campground is one of my favorites in the US. Easily accessible from the highway, with large camping spots and beautifully situated within the rolling hills, the location is a gateway to abundant, unbroken nature.

This was a beautiful, well organized camp ground with a helpful and friendly camp host. The night sky was clear and we could see the Milky Way.

Private sights, roomy for our 40’ 5th wheel. Nice camp host. Clean and well cared for. Cell coverage was challenging but Starlink worked well but had to work around trees.
