This is the 1st time we have stayed at this campground. It was very nice. We did have issues with the water because it leaked at the source and we ended up having to connect with our neighbor to be able to have water at our sight so we wouldn't have a muddy mess at our sight. Our neighbor was my brother-in-law and sister, so I don't know what we would have done if they hadn't been camping with us. We received and email prior to our stay saying the camp ground was closed and I called but no one would answer. I didn't know if just one of the 4 sights I had rented we closed or the entire camp ground. I called recreation.gov and they could not tell me what was going on either. I didn't want to drive 2 hours just to find out I didn't have a spot!! I called multiple times over several days and NO ONE EVERY answered the phone at the # provided for the camp ground. That was very frustrating and poor customer service. I finally got an email the day before we were supposed to leave to say the campground would be open and to disregard any previous message.

pretty nice campground but there were no staff around anywhere. I was in a site where there was no one around. Being a single, older woman, I was pretty nervous. Left the next day.

Policies & Rules
Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
