There's no water at this site. The dirt road to the campsite is not being maintained. As a result, the tree branches that have over-grown the entrance scratched the sides of my trailer. The last turn is so sharp that the trailer wheels fell off the pavement and went into the ditch damaging the axles. And, the final climb to the site is so steep (and slippery in the rain) that we got stuck! I do not recommend this campsite at all. Also, it's impossible to book this site because someone on the inside at recreation.gov is selling the reservations and booking it before it is available to the public. That is why you can never reserve this site no matter how many times you try. I assigned a programmer employee of mine to investigate and can prove it. It's rigged. And, frankly, I don't really care...I just want to know who it is so I will know where to go to book it again.

everything was great , except i booked one last day the week of us coming up there , it was the last day the camp ground was available . I was out on the reservoir , when my daughters was leaving the camp ground and some was telling them we all should have been out of the campground already , and would not listen to my daughters that i had booked the spot for one more day ! i had to go talk to the camp host at mustang ridge to get it straighten out , he was great about it. Is there anyway to be on a waiting list for that spot if there are reservation cancelations ?
