It isn’t what it used to be over the past 20+ years as it doesn’t seem to be maintained as it was in the past. Don’t recall the last time there was someone manning the guard house.

Sites were very clean when we arrived. The Camp Host were very friendly and helpful. We were celebrating Thanksgiving with family and friends and the host were most accommodating and helping with parking and other items for a large group. We have been going to Cagle for many years, and we have always found the campground clean. The host have always been very nice and helpful.
