The campsite is very overgrown, the benches are old and rotted. The toilets are old and didn't have toilet paper. The toilet service sign said last serviced July 2021 and by the looks it was accurate. It's close to road and you get road noise. I probably wouldn't reserve again. The people before us left a lot of garbage in the fire ring

Disappointed with the campground conditions, the picnic tables are rotten, we had to clean both outhouses before we could use them as there was excrement everywhere, the toilets were not secured to the floor. Had to keep the gates secured to keep people from trying to drive in and setup camp. Very noisy. We were there 3 days before anyone official stopped by then only to "throw" a couple rolls of toilet paper on to the floor of the outhouses for the mice to chew on. $50.00 a night might be a little high for this site.

Site was very clean when we arrived, there was a lot of wood to split due to the falling of a tree by the forest service and the river access was excellent
