It's a beautiful spot that feels like it's being wrecked by groups of partiers. With no camp host on site, anything goes. Loud music, karaoke parties, site squatters, messy sites. The shame of it is that there is abundant wildlife, including loads of birds. Good luck hearing them if you're unfortunate enough to camp with the types of people that seem drawn to this location.

A comfortable campground with sites large enough that you can spread multiple tents out with great views. If you are a birder, this is the place for you with a variety of wildlife sightings. My group was the only group there for the three nights we camped and we all had cell service. The only issue we had is that the wasps were horrible during our stay. Anytime you had food out or were trying to cook, you got swarmed. Two of us got stung so when it’s peak wasp season, be wary during the day.

Beautiful location, nice campsites. Very few people. Unfortunately, the people who were there before us didn't want to walk to the vault toilet and used the "behind the tree" method. Yuck. The campground map shows a water faucet in the middle of the campground but I did not see it anywhere.
