The site was clean and our area was spacious enough for a 12-person tent. We were able to enjoy the quiet and the trails around the campground.

We stayed in campsites 9 and 10 and had a great time :) we loved the little bridge we crossed to take to get to campsite 9. If anyone plans on choosing these two campsites for a group, you can definitely do so, just know that there’s a small creek you have to cross in between them. We didn’t mind this, it actually added to our experience with a little more privacy and general vibe. There is enough for two small-medium tents on each lot. Highly recommend! Bathrooms well kept and fire pits were great.

We camped on a Monday-Wednesday in July and had the whole campground to ourselves! The creek was perfect for kids to play in. The sites and bathrooms were clean. Minus one star for water spigots out of order. We are already planning to come back next summer!
