Not many people and quite. Lots of vegetation for privacy.

This campground is a favorite place to go. No cell service, so no interruptions from the outside world. Nice large campsites with lots of trees. Camping in Loop D is great... you can hear the river at night!

Park was clean. Sites are easy access. Pit toilets inside were clean. Maybe some solar lights inside for evening.
No complaints at all and we will be back

there were people in the camp having fires! even though they are banned. and people running around naked, like it's lord of the flies. or that tom hanks movie, where he is stranded on the island, and he has to get his tooth out. this park needs to be policed

The campsites were beautiful and pristine, spacious and offered more privacy than most campgrounds we've visited. It was very quiet and actually peaceful - something I never imagined I'd write about any campground anywhere. That said, having no cell service or utilities, and this year's burn ban, might also have kept a lot of people away and drawn a quieter clientele. I would also caution that the tent platforms we saw weren't leveled and had lots of roots.
