I don't know what it is about this campground, but this is the lowest key area we have ever visited. Quiet hours start at 10pm, but everyone is settled in and quiet by 7pm usually. It seems like everyone that uses this campground is there for the same reason- private sites, very little amenities, and a quiet camping experience. Most campers that do use generators, have the very quiet style and use them very sparingly. Our family really enjoys being able to walk to three different hiking trails from our campsite. The playground and loop road through the campground is a nice and safe place for the kids to play and ride their bikes without having to worry about traffic. The campground hosts are always accommodating and very helpful.
