Unfortunately, even though we had reservations for 3 nights from April 1-4, the campground was locked and we couldn't camp here. I assume there was poor communication be Recreation.gov that said the campsite was available and either the USFS or the camp management company.
That being said, the roads within the campground looked newly resurfaced and it was in a great location. We are willing to try again at another time yet right now we are still waiting for a refund from an unfulfilled camp opportunity.
