This is one of my favorite places to go and stay. The creeks and dam are beautiful and in the summer the shower house is great. Love both the lower and upper (primitive) sites!

The camp ground was nice and easy to walk or drive around. The drop toilets by the site we were in were okay but preferred to walk over to the showers/toilets by the other loop. Absolutely no cell service at the campground. Made it hard to map to the trails we wanted to hike. We enjoyed a hike at Buzzard swamp called the Songbird Sojourn trail. We found a small playground in the little town near Loelta that my daughter enjoyed running around at. It was a nice trip and would camp there again.
