It’s in National Park so definitely wonderful location. We visited Oct so fall colors in all its glory. Campground was crowded but no disturbances. Bathrooms are limited. Showers are paid as well as laundry. Laundry wash 1 dollar and machines were good.

The park is situated basically in the middle of the park-which gave us the chance to enter from the north and then camp after sightseeing. The park is clean and sites are spacious. The grounds are very pretty and there was lots of fire wood! There is some great trails right out of the campground which we really enjoyed. We went 6 miles and saw water falls and beautiful scenery without having to get in the car. We would stay again!

Walk-in, tent only sites were a little closer to the regular sites than I expected. Otherwise it was great. Coupla good hikes and a beautiful drive.

It was great! Lots of other campers but it was not loud at night. We went to a ranger talk on Sunday night at the amphitheater and I definitely recommend. The bathrooms were clean and convenient and all of the staff we talked to were helpful. The campsite was easy to drive to and the space was bigger than we needed. Lots of deer and little critters but we both kept a distance.

Nice spot to camp. Wildlife was abundant at the campground. Deer spent the night grazing outside our tent. My only complaints are that the showers are $5 and only use quarters ànd they don't tell you how much time you get for it. The only other complaint is that you can't get a good idea of the lay of the land from a website when you make reservations. I chose a site that was on less than desirable slope. That was really the only disappointment I experience. Hint: Sleep with your head uphill if you don't want your wife rolling on top of you as you sleep.

Lovely campground! The peace and quiet were amazing, and the view of the sky on clear nights was spectacular. I expect plenty more trips here from us.

Bad campsite with no storage locker, and butts up to another site which smoked us out all day and covered us in their ashes. The site is relatively flat in the parking space, but the whole site is slanted on a large hill.
Our neighbors had 6 sites and decided to party right next to us... really poor experience as this is not a group campsite.
