This place is beautiful and most of the sites are large and very clean. We intend on coming back many, many times.

The volunteer that brought us our tag was very kind, we thought she did a great job! I definitely wouldn’t say the picture of our camp site was accurate. In the pic it looked like it was surrounded with thick trees providing privacy. There is no privacy anywhere there. The sites are so close to each other our neighbors in the next site were able to see every move we made and took full advantage of it. There should be half as many sites as there are. I was also very surprised at how many sites appeared to have very long term campers in them who made use of black plastic and ragged tarps to create living space. However, it was quiet after quiet time and it was clean. On our way out there was a large group we passed (we were under the impression there was a limit to the number of campers per site) and one of the members was relieving himself right by the roadside. A beautiful drive out there but most likely won’t go back even though parts of the experience were great.

We went at the end of Aug and it was amazing. The weather was fabulous, the scenery was breathtaking and the facilities were clean. We are definitely planning to visit again!

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.
