The campsite was well kept, clean, and the location very remote and peaceful , totally worth it. Clean restrooms with water. We camped on first weekend of February and winds were super strong, nonstop throughout the night; a pop-up tent was definitely not a good choice. Beautiful scenery throughout the hike, can’t wait for spring to come back!

if it's busy you aren't going to have much privacy, but it's far out enough that it's not often busy
