Beautiful campground! The sites are well separated. The swimming area is small but the streams and dams with small waterfalls are so relaxing. Clean bathrooms with flush toilets and showers. No dump station! Hope to spend more time here in the future.

Probably my favorite non-dispersed camping spot in ANF because the upper loop has a dispersed feel but you have the great swimming hole and shower house right down the hill...

Very low clearance in almost every site and the entry road narrow and over grown. The pictures posted do not show the back in view just the site view none of these sites will accommodate a tall fifth wheel. Had to leave and find a different campsite at one of the many private campgrounds in the area

Everything was awesome. The campground was great. We had lots of fun. Sites are spread out and clean as was the restroom facilities. Only issue was the campers next to us ran a generator all night. No reason or excuse to do that.
