Campground was closed due to downed trees. We were not notified until a day after our reservation date. We had to find other means of camping after driving to Panther Creek.

This was the best trip of the summer. It was peaceful and quiet. The camp host allowed me to change sites because the original site was so uneven that I couldn't make my camper level It was OK for a tent. The camp ground was only about 50% full. I will go back next summer. Now I know which sites are the best.
