Everything was just as advertised. The campground was clean, and the vault toilets were as clean as could be expected. We saw mule deer roaming the campground in the morning. It was lovely.

This campsite is amazing. Awesome creek and campgrounds were spread out so we couldn’t even see our neighbors from our site. Super clean bathrooms as well

Beautiful site! If you have an RV, make sure you have “dumped and filled” before arriving. The closest dump and water site is about 12 or so miles away. There are a few primitive water spigots around the circle for drinking water. The toilets are only pit toilets with no lights! The sites are beautiful , roomy, private, and shaded!
